i have to apologize too.
i've had this blade shaped and sitting on my bench unfinished for weeks now, finally got my butt in gear and did some work on it today.
heat treated it and got the handle fitted now i'm on to shaping it up.
KHalverson i think i owe you a apology too, i got your blade weeks ago and i thought i sent you a PM to let you know it got here but i don't see anything in my out box.
but it has been working well so far, i've been trying to find small jobs for it around the house.
