    Hi Stewie,

    Sweet looking saw, I can't imagine how you managed to file those bevels by hand... you have more patience than me.

    The lines flow from the handle to the blade just right.

    Thanks Ray. Each of those bevels come supplied with a dozen expletives. Changing the subject somewhat. Did you purchase some Cocobolo off the bay recently. !!

    Hi Stewie, No not me... Although I must start keeping an eye open for some.

    There was a nice piece sold recently on the bay. Even though I put an early bid on it I was not overly concerned later on when I was outbid. Its the same wood type that set Klaus off with his over sensitivity to working with most timbers now. Cocobolo does have a bad reputation for being so inclined. Not fun I would imagine.
