I tried to find someone to buy a bunch of Foley sharpening equipment several years ago but no takers. I think Fish talked to the daughter of the owner and it turned out he had gone to school with her.

Hmmm. I need a new brush hog and there is a pull behind one there too.....



Wonder if I can justify both purchases to the wife by saying that taking one off the 3-or is to much of a PITA....

Those things were all the rage back in the 70's

They're great if you enjoy prying axeheads out of blocks of wood
I was wondering what advantages all that stuff on the head would give.....

I've never seen one like this. How is it they are Supposed to work?

When you hit the block, it's supposed to force the levers apart, which splits the wood.

My experience is that a lot of the time the block doesn't let go, and you end up with the head buried. So then you're trying to pull that thing out of the block with the levers extended. Fun. Been a long time since I used one, I don't miss them.
