2 done of a 3 blade set. Sword of strength, Dagger of Character and (to be completed) Rapier of Humility.  The father is giving each of his children a blade when they turn 14.  Coat of arms on the cross guard

Bob,

Those pieces are amazing. Your craft is really growing. I am in desperate need of adding that cooling spray to my machine, but I am still concerned how it may rust my equipment. But I don't know you seem to have it mastered. 

Respectfully
Michael

Thanks Michael Samdahl.  I wouldnt fear the misting.  your platten and rest get wet anyhow from dunking. I would guess the wheels too as the belt gets wet from the dunked blade.  I believe grinder parts will wear out anyhow just do to the dust and grime from grinding.  Dont forget, I find the water helps keep down the dust in the shop too.
