I'm getting really lucky!!!
« on: February 12, 2009, 11:42:00 PM »
Just by chance, I stopped to help a good friend saw up some rock to knap. He told me he had some old blades, and I took him up on his offer and brought one home!

24"x 1/8" Circular saw blade. Thats an 8" blade on it for size comparison. I'm hoping its hardenable. We will see!
