x SF med: I concur. You are welcome here anytime, buddy. And while offerings are always welcome in this house,
I'll provide the barley pop!
gtcrispy: Thanks! Glad you like.
And now, some pics of the big stupid batch I'm working on. Click links to view pics, I'd rather you suck up my bandwidth than that of the forum.
Last pic, all heat treated, re-re-straightened, and ready for finishing.
Rest of pics, all ground, ready for tang hole drilling and then into the fire they go!
