Looking for a new rope that will hold up against sharp edges and abuse. What's out there these days? Any suggestion/opinions?
Thanks..

Mammuts, IME, tend to be very durable for the diameter. Pay attention to the sheath %s when you are looking at potential ropes.

I used to use an Edelweiss Stratos for bigwalls. Super burly and had sharp edge resistance, very confidence inspiring though it was a bit of a cable.

I think it's been replaced by the Geos line, which also has the sharp edge resistance feature.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
