Leather "Round" Knife...first one

Just a word of warning for the guys gonna grind one of these out. Round knives stick out in odd places and are very good at getting caught by the belt on your grinder and launched. Getting tired of having these beeches trying to kill me I learned to grind roundknives while standing off to the side of the grinder, much safer. I've probably made 30 to 40 of em now and its an adjustment but worth it. The one sided one like shown here probably not so bad but those more traditional two pointed ones can be tough.

Yup, I put it down the other night when it got pulled out of my hand. Best to do these when fresh, not tired.
