Title: Simple Corner Notch
Post by: Outbackbob48 on November 17, 2015, 07:34:44 pm

Just  a simple corner notch to keep the rust off :o. Had a rough preform knocked out from this summer. Took about 15 min to thin a little more and shape up and notch. Had a nice sharp point on it but just wouldn't stay there :o Bob

Bob, I really like how you got that notch to curve it really set off the ear on the point.
