The harder a metal is the typically the more brittle it is, that's just physics. At least with steel.
Super hard tool steel will snap. Usually after it's been dropped too many times on a hard surface causing microfractures.
Snapping an MIP tool is almost proof of the quality of the steel. The lower quality will just round or bend instead, indicating the lower grade of steel
Like I said, a master craftsmen will make it last a lifetime.
Don't abuse your tools and maybe practice on some cheap stuff before you move to the big boy tools and complain they suck from lack of experience.
