Some may remember my enthusiastic statement that one way or another I'd own one of Rob's Rotary Platens by the end of the summer...I almost made it. 
When it finally arrived I took my sweet time figuring out what I was going to make with it, and then this order came in for a Scagel repro. Problem solved.
So here's my first knife off this great new tool. Specs:
Overall Length: 12"
Blade: 6 3/4" O1, Differentially Hardened, Convex Ground, Hand Finish to 600 grit
Brass Guard
Brass, Black and White Fiber, and Leather Spacers
Purpleheart "Terminal" (in place of Stag crown)
It was fun!
