Well gonna have to stop for the weekend... I got the grind done... Not pretty right now. Here you guys get to see it in all its ugly beauty.
Fresh off the grinder (s grind)
It's THIN. (0 ground, light convex on the grind near the edge).
Here's the other side with its beautiful handrubbed finish (400 grit stone to remove all belt grind marks)

Josh do you by any chance have a pic, sneak peak, or even a CAD drawing of what the Smock reblade will look like?Also do you know yet if it’s going to fit the new and old style Smocks?
If not, what measurements do you need from the old one? I need to pull my apart soon and can get some.
Asking for
We have to buy a second one anyway as there are two blade designs. LOL

I'm not sure if it will fit both old and new smock but I believe so... The only difference is in the scales and screw heads from what I gather, whereas the internal pivot barrel and everything is the same. But I haven't verified yet.
