And it looks like it'll be another great Bowie!
Thanks for sharing!
So when with be finished and when will it go up for sale?
I've never had a blade do that, so I guess it's caused by the compound somehow.Anyway, they came out nice and clean.

Good question. I don't think so. It's not really a sharp point, but it does look that way in the pictures....
Thanks for asking,
