To post a picture you have to upload it to a picture hosting site, and then copy the link from that site and post the link here.
email me the picture and I'll post it for you....
Whatever you do, have fun doing it!

Is it forged? Does it have a single bevel cutting edge? What width, length?

This tool may also have been used for splitting off radially sawn clapboards from their log core.

I have a D handled slick, and I have been told that is what it was used for. I'll probably not use it much, but it was a beautifully hand forged piece, so it's now in the collection.
