Title: 3 Rivers Grind Woodsman
Post by: LV2HUNT on November 16, 2010, 11:40:00 AM
How much work is required on the 3 River's Woodsman (not elite) to establish the initial bevel?

About 5 minutes on a 12" mill bastard file.

God Bless,
Nathan

about 2 seconds on a table top belt sander for each of the 3 sides!

Doesn't take long at all with a file.

I have done it with a couple dozen strokes on a good file with the the newer regular heads.
p.s. don't get the older heads, they aren't nearly as nice.
