6005 "Bryan Carbonnell" <recsmgmt@t...> 1996‑09‑16 Scary Sharp (tm) WARNING!!
Galoots,

I have a very serious warning about the D&S Scary Sharp (tm)System!!

It works only TOO WELL!! I SSed my chisels on the weekend and in the 
process of testing how sharp they were I managed to put two 1/2" long 
cuts in the palm of my hand. Interesingly enough the cuts are exactly 
1" apart, cut we tell which chisel did this? :-)

I sharpened them because I started making a counter for a girlfriend 
of SWMBO who is opening a clothing store. While doing this I managed 
to get EIGHT cuts in one finger and NEVER felt any of them. Right now 
I would count the number of cuts on the one hand but I can't count 
that high. Needless to say my hand looks like, well, a hand that has 
been introduced to the Scary Sharp (tm) system.

I am heading to Lee Valley Tools to get their carvers gloves, you 
know the ones with KEVLAR fibers in them, to keep all my fingers 
attached.

Now should I sick my lawyers on Steve, for creating this monster, of 
John for publishing it??  Naw, I'll just sick SWMBO and my mommy on 
them! :-))

Just be careful with SS. IT IS INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!
