Title: Bolens Bevel replica
Post by: Outbackbob48 on March 22, 2018, 03:40:59 pm

Sun shining and finally warmed up in the 40's got outside and YEP beat on some rock today, Found this dry ole pc of Burlington and thought I might get something out of it, had a natural kinda twist goin on so I just went with it and tried to replicate a Heavly resharpened Bolen Bevel Point. Tried twice to get a better pic of the heavy bevel but just doesn't do it justice, Tried to get that original look, anyways here is my replica of the Bolens Bevel. Bob

That's cool to see the cross-section.  Like that, Bob.
