BB13 has been reprofiled, etched, stripped, sanded, and just got a ghetto regrind on my 1×30". It's roughly 0.035" behind the edge at 15 degrees per side and I convexed the transition to the flats. Weight looks to be right at 24oz and thickness after stripping is .215".

This thing is savage. :thumbsup:
 
NOW we're talkin'! :thumbsup:

Looks like you could shred some serious countryside with that bad boy!

Great work!
 
Thanks Will!

I did some testing on wood in my garage, but I can't wait to get out in the woods with it again. I'm going to be clearing trails, vines, honeysuckle, etc... with extreme prejudice lol.
 
That looks fantastic, has some character now. Must perform great, I look forward to hearing a report on it as a user !!
 
Thanks all!!

It almost look's to be a hollow grind now.

After I stripped it, the factory grind looked a little hollow, but it turned out to be deeper than expected. Wouldn't mind getting it down to a clean, flat primary, but I'd have to do it by raising the saber height as I'm wary of taking it any thinner behind the edge. Want to use it some like this though for sure before I think about removing more material.
 
She came out GORGEOUS Nate! Congrats! :thumbsup:

I don't think the trail is gonna know what hit it when you get out there with that bad azz BB-13!!!
 
Thanks mate! My only regert is having "Shimmy Shimmy Ya" stuck in my head for days on end lol.
