I'd think that would still give the shaving characteristic of the wedge while making honing a bit easier, no?

Thanks a lot. I'm still itching to get into this.

im good with calling it 1/8 hollow

also as a note these are thinner then the blanks will be the 6 im working on right now are 5/32 thick and the blanks will be 3/16 thick

Since you used other peoples ideas or designs for these blades, it may be best to ask them first if they would want it instead of just leaving it to chance.

Butch, how big is the black blade in blue scales? I love that one...

**L R Harner** · 03-06-2009, 04:19 PM

Thank you, Butch. I would like one with similar proportions only bigger and with a longer / thinner monkey tail. I should start working on my drawing.

Nice idea. I'd like to see a full 8/8 spanish point with 1/8" pivot hole.
Is there any chance of getting a blank that has not been heat treated?
This one is begging for file work on the spine...
I'm in for at least one.
