Oooh, a bead blasting and then a real heavy stonewashing? Nice job on the finish!
Thanks. No bead blasting, just sanded the logos off, grabbed some gravel/stones from my front yard, threw them in a jar with some wd40 and the blade. Tossed it in the dryer (no heat) for roughly an hour and 20 minutes. No more cold steel bush whacker.

Wow, dang! Nice job! I'm surprised you were able to sand the laser etching off completely, those usually go pretty deep. That must have been a good little workout if you did it by hand. 🍻👌
 
I think I'm almost back in the groove, posting for two days straight for the first time since my return from up north. I went with more of a work knife today as I did a few chores around the house and yard after a few b-ball admin tasks in the morning. I spent a little time on my wife's mower--she's the usual yard-worker here--after it had failed to start yesterday. I couldn't find a choke control (turns out a Chinese Briggs engine doesn't have one) and she couldn't find the manual, but the search yielded a few pages that I didn't recall having for the 4-foot Connecticut box-and-pan sheetmetal brake that's an excellent complement to my straight 8-foot Chicago machine.

I got the mower going on the 2nd pull after a little maintenance on the big bench out in front of the woodshop, then got a few more knife pics by the boulder retaining wall and all the misc work-related stuff cast about over there.
