Tom, did the anvil hold up to that pin tightening?

**MikeB52** · 10-07-2015, 01:18 AM

That is a sweet piece of steel Tom!
Outback can surely shine those up prettier than some of my razors!
Nice work horse, and nice momento of a good bud.

Yeah B52, you should be next!

Cut the tape and thought I had a big, square loaf of bread!

The 'money shot' on the HIGHLY polished 'show' side!

A beautiful, hand-crafted thing from the hands of a fine friend and a fine craftsman!
You really shouldn't have Outback Mike! But I am certainly glad you did!

I will cherish it always!
Thanks!
Tom

Why thank you...Tom!

But I had to. It was nothing, and wanted to return the favor.
You were very kind and generous in your offerings. So I wanted to send you something in return.

Respectfully
Mike.

Your always welcome.

Just one more coat of paint Steve. And its anvil, over the border.
Crazy canooks and their tukes.
That's a stocking hat fer y'all southern folk.

I'm cleaning up my first two japanese folders today/night. Got the two of them and my first two big henckels honed up while I recouped today.
All 4 have honed up extremely fast and extremely sharp!! The Henckels are a 14 and a
72 1/2 Inox. The japanese, no idea what the symbols mean. The one says F.M77. on the one side, symbols on the other.
Will be testing them out later.

Pics, or it didn't happen! What are you recouping from?
