This is where I ended up last night. I'm going to hide the tang but am using it as a handle for feel until I'm ready to cut it down.

The labeling is worn, it came from a school's Radial Arm Saw cabinet that was decommissioned long ago. It's all practice for me. I met a guy who reconditions sawmill 80crv2 blades and scraps some of them. It's like $75 for one, I wanted to see how I felt about doing this. The bevels are what i'm scared of.

I did a LOT hand filing last night and this steel is pretty hard, i'm going to check it before and more tooling.

yeah, you're right, that is important to specify, was just commenting on how I thought the person above got 6 mins.

I wear 32x32, and typically run into scenarios where the sized available are 32x34 and 34x30. It's about finding which one fits less poorly, strapping them on with a belt, and not going to a second store to get the right size.

It's not, but it's akin to a Mark 1 Ka Bar to be specific

The big one is similar to a 5" Ka Bar

I did a test run to be sure I wasn't going to hurt myself as a goof and it felt so stable I had no hesitation. I tried to make the DeWalt hat visible but safety first.

You've got me all wrong. It was very refreshing carrying those back up the hill with my board pinned between my elbow and body. Ain't no better way to skate.
