Saw blade steel.

 

We’d arrive during the “filers” lunch break. They loaded our 3/4 ton up with 6’ and 4.5’ circular saw blade. Huge blades the differential on the truck touched the rubber stoppers on the frame. They had been storing the blades in the back behind some machines. For some reason the blades hadn’t been thrown out. They were obsolete and hadn’t been used for at least 15 years. That was in 1997. We were asked to return for another load of 2’ trim saw blades, planer blades and bandsaw steel. One mill gave us 25 years worth of blood, sweat and tears in a few visits.

The knife above has two lanyards. One growing from the back of the sheath with a loop on one end and one on the knife. Locking lanyards. Refer to the custom sheath page.
