Hi chichi,not as deadly as a fast moving Chevy mate lol We do seem to have some of the best joe blakes in the world , Typan not bad either .but the brown he seems to be everywhare very common they are probably correct about that . kookaburras love the snakes here there favorite tucker not sure about the hawks tho .

Thank you very much cheftjcook

If you take your time in the last steps you get most out i use a good file heres a pic of when i was doing the pipe hawk from rail clip . Chris

Hi AndersMJ. Only found a couple so far . First i ruff square makes it a bit easyier to slit when you work alone than round on the anvil . I use a piece of h13 forged into a slitter chisel . I have a few i must finished so it may be a while before i start anymore sorry for that .

Hi AndersMJ.thank you for the complement, i will try and find some pix if i can . Chris
