So much fun with language words. I had an ex-girlfriend who remained a friend come back from college in Pennsylvania "Eh" quickly became part of our regular vocabulary.

So I finished the Packwood and am looking to get going on my Fredrick I thought was dead. Managed to get to clean steel and now it's time to deal with the crack at the toe. I haven't done this before so I'm looking for some tips. My plan is a little dremmel cut off on a wet sponge followed by some time on a Craftsman wet sharp I think Geezer has mentioned in the past. Here's a pic of my plan. The red ink is the crack. The blue is the new profile I'm aiming for. I have come to like the Spanish point and it looks like it will save the most steel. Advice appreciated.

If I don't destroy the blade It'll be time to clean up rust and make new scales.
