Thanks Dano , i like the shape and the thought of it cutting through 2 feet of concrete or 2" of armour plate ,now does anyone on the site have a General Wade Charge? Some pics would be great

Thanks Allan ,i think General Wade was the guy who built all the military roads all over Scotland after the Jacobite Rebellion 1700s .I think he ended up a Field Marshal
