It's a point chisel. It's used for removing large bits of stone. It's about 8inches long there

Been ages since I last posted anything but just a quick one to show you a could of recent aquisitions and a tool I made for a stone carving friend. Just need to give it a beeswax finish and maybe a bit of a leather home.

No news is good news as they say

Ha, I came back to 325 pages of new posts. Did a skim read.

Not really, I've been working, init. How is everyone doing? I'm ashamed to say that I haven't even visited the site for quite some time. In the meantime I've had a haircut and a beard trim and renewed my membership just now. Not had any outdoor or anvil time at all. Gah! What have missed...

Mine arrived a while ago but I've been too busy to let you know. Great kit, though my jumper is currently stretching on the back a chair. Svelt lot, you Finns!

I managed to sort an international payment out via my internet banking. Though I needed quite a lot of info from Martti (full name, bank address, home address) which he gladly supplied.

Dougster, if for some reason mine doesn't fit, you can have it.

Happy birthday chris, eat cake and that!

Excellent Martti!

Ah right, so it's a stuff sack with the ridgeline going right through (I can see a hole in the end above)? Nice idea, that.

That's terrible news. Ian was a great to help to me on more than one occassion. Really don't know what to say.

Did Shaggystu get this? If not... could I?

Hardened, tempered and ground. Give her a sharpen and leave it at that I think. Next project: Kiridashi I reckon

I'm left handed, so if you find yourself with a wrong-un you can always pass it on to me!
