Good scraper material right there! Started using some this spring. Takes an edge real nice and lasts. If you don't have a grinder to remove the teeth, Ozzy can craft a quick grip out of duct tape ;D

Thanks Zuma

It's 1.25" wide and 1/16th thick.  Would this steel be thick enough for something like that Marc?  Interesting idea...

Thanks Parnell,
Be good if you could use a shear to cut lengths?
Some would make hide scrapers or fillet knives.
Good luck and keep up up to date.

That's cool and everything Steve. But I prefer to work with a group of friends and inadvertently toss their scrapers in my tool bag when we pack up. I have 3 now :)
