Title: small mahogany blade
Post by: Josh B on July 11, 2013, 01:43:07 am

Nothing special.  Just trying to get back in the swing of it.  I should of thinned a little more with percussion before I went to pressure.  It ended up 4.6 to 1.  Thanks for looking .  Josh

Very nice, lso w/t ratio is not too bad for a blade it works and it has room for resharpening too!  Great job!
