Total length 250mm, and 35mm at the widest point.

After a while I managed to get this out of it.

Next step is to grind out the profile and get the necessary holes drilled.
Tel me what you think.

Thanks for looking!

After I have resolve some problems with my grinder (I have to replace the bearings for the platen head pulleys) her is an update from the knife.
I have ground the profile and I decide to go with a full flat grind this time, and the necessary holes are drilled.
Tel me what you think.

Thanks for looking!
