I decided to have fun with a vinegar etch and see what would come out of it. When i pulled the blade out it "bit" me nice and deep on my middle finger. So i fit a bamboo handle and went to town.
After the first light swing
The blade is about 1/8" at its thickest but it distal tapers to a nice needle point.
other side of the blade, lots of nice pitting and etching from the vinegar.
now i know this is sacrilege to a blade so thin but i had to.
Went through some 3/4" CDX plywood with a flick of the wrist.
I proceeded to trim our orange tree a bit sadly no pics of my topiary skills
Blade is 1084
OAL 16"
Blade is 12"
