Most excellent!

Beautiful job Keith!

Excellent job Keith! Very nicely done.

I find myself often making close observations about the bend when I see performance tests these days; how it bends, where it bends, and how much does it bend versus flex. I found myself cheering on this one. Well done Mr. Fludder!

Thank you everyone. The journey continues. <img src=' http://www.americanbladesmith.com/ipboard/public/style_emoticons//biggrin.gi f' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

It was a pleasure to have Keith come and test. He did a great job. You can see it took some time to get through the 2x4. That is because Keith bought some strange cross bred lumber that was half pine half petrified ironwood! The chips were small and came out polished like chips of marble. Really great performance all around. I am the same Kevin. The bend shows so much about the condition of the blade. The big even arc with no kinks and the spring back was just great to watch. Well done again Keith and onwards you go mate.

Cheers

Shawn

Thanks again Shawn. I must admit I do like hard wood
