    Most of them I bought when Silvey was still in business. The Ziegelmeyer was pure luck as was the 510.

    Looking good Jasha. I wish I still had a round grinder more so than a square.

    2014-09-19 23.07.03.jpg Files are in, RSL is in, and from the looks of these chains that are getting prepped with stoned square cutters that lost some serious weight by crafty hands and magical grinders - my chains wont do spit in the same log.

    This is another practice RS to square and I am getting much closer to a good sharp corner using the double bevel files .......... the wierd thing is that I can now use the 3 corner file way better than I was ..................
