Those are real nice. I've got saws and grinders but hardly ever use them, they are messy.

Ben I bought the grinder a year ago this month & just got it out. I like how the scar pattern turns out but like Eddie said they do make a mess.

Great looking blades.   I've tried FOG. I just can't get it down.  My hats off to you.

Very Nice! How long did it take you to get the hang of the flaking to get it looking that good?
