Honestly, when I first saw this pattern, I was not in love.
Then I got one from another member here (donated to get me hooked!).
Fits the hand great! Ergo's are very nice!
I think it had some effect on me.
These came in the mail. Big and small one for me. Small for each of my two boys in different colors (6 years old and 19 months......so the little guy is going to have to wait!)
Scharade shield. The blades are 1095 (these were made by GEC for Scharade in 2004?).
I had to hit the kick on the clip blade with my belt sander (just a kiss to get it below the handle, and stop poking my finger).
The clip blade on the smaller one of mine may need just a kiss on the grinder too.
The dealer said if I sent them back to GEC, they would fix it, but it was not worth it.
I can't believe the difference in the hand between the 2 blade #23 and the single blade #23 (larger). The weight difference is significant!
I though the rear bolsters on the single #23 would some what make up for the 2nd blade and spring.....but it is not even close.
Now, I think I need some Barlow Jacks.
