Did anyone test (or experienced somehow) the corrosion resistance for the blade?

Started working on my T15 mule. It’s my first one. Never cared for the silhouette, so I’m changing it. Still kinda rough

Looks very nice! How do you trim it (belts, grinder)?

Yep both, and a bucket of water. I’ll use a Dremel for the finish touches

Well done sir! I especially am impressed with mule builds that go "all the way" and even modify the basic shape. Will be tuning in to see how this build goes. Strong work, Drubieg.

Regards Standy's photos above, I was wondering how he got hold of a "Made in Australia" mule and was feeling some genuine envy there for a bit.

Hi All! Hope you can help me with the following. This will be the 2nd time making scales for a knife and for the mule I want to use corbies. What size (width & length) would you suggest?

I’ve added grooves and chamfering. It’s rough and might take it down to lower grit but may not… it’s not a showpiece. I’m excited to make a coffin shaped sheath for it though…. Killer!
