 Cheers Mick
hello MICK
Thanks for the kind words.
If I recall correctly, the body alone on this was just a tad over 4 inches long
Need to measure and let U have the complete overall length tip to end, if that's crucial for U

Am I missing something?

Yes, comparing his handmade tool to a commercially made tool. A commercially made tool would likely not be nearly as nice. I feared my subtle humor would be misinterpreted.

Sorry about that. Sad

We're getting too touchy feely here guys, next thing you know I won't be able to call Steve an old fart. 
Nice tooling aRM
Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.

Read Your intentions the first time 'cos we used to have the same kind of comparison vis-a-vis, production and custom Knives. They just don't compare.
Nice to read the cheerful banter between the Guys here. Makes one feel relaxed and at ease.
Thanks for the input.

Chin Thankfully I didn't take that out of context.

That is a very nice tool you have there aRM.

That is because this is Metalworking FUN. We aren't here to have competitions with anyone. Smile

Ed, how come there's a "like post" button but only after you select it do you get an "unlike post" button ?
And, all it does is remove your "like post". Rotfl

So does that mean that a dislike is assumed unless the like is clicked, Ed?

Nice job aRM.
