LOL, I have a double whammy going on here. My wife is Filipina and Chinese. Will be taking Bear's security advice.
Ummmmmmmmmmm @Mountainman ..... you're doomed if you ever piss her off.... I was going to suggest dulling her blades if you ever upset her but she probably also knows how to put a razor edge on those blades.... better add some chainmail boxer shorts to the list as well
ask for "kings mail" or "dragon mail"... a little heavier but a better protection... .... might still chafe a bit tho....
Finally got out and used this today for the first time. We were going through the area around a couple of retaining ponds to get some of the rose quartz that's common in the area for outlining a section of the back yard. We also were looking for "volunteer" saplings that we could cut down and use to build some pea/bean towers. Worked like a champ. A couple of times I didn't have enough room to get a full swing going to cut through about 3/4-1in at the base but the majority of the time it went right through. Anything lighter/softer/thinner and it would have gone through without an issue. It was great to use it and worked like a champ. Thank you again @Bear for the craftsmanship of this beautiful, functional tool.
Thanks for the great report @DarkLight Glad it got some use and worked for you... always happy to hear how the "orphans" are doing Hope you had a great weekend! Take Care and God Bless, Bear
