Spearpoint Marking Knife

[Sheffield Tony]

Peace ... I didn't mean an attack on you. I meant to criticise willful destruction of a little piece of history.

Can't see why the OP started with a working chisel. The model knife pictured at the outset is not boxwood, and uses a Stanley knife blade. Easy to get tool steel without ruining something old and of good quality.

Tony,

I misinterpreted your sentiments. My apologies.
Probably me sitting here with a dehydration headache; too much Furosimide, courtesy of my GP! .


What Bern does with his old chisels I suppose is his affair, but in his place I would have used a worn out chisel, and maybe kept the handle; Especially as I have such a 3/4" chisel badly in need of a boxwood replacement! :lol:
