jackell...I agree with you about the swedge. I used my sander on mine for awhile and stopped before going too far. I'm undecided whether to put a sharpened edge on which would make for a very effective stabber, or leave some flat to assist with batoning. I just noticed that my Reg swedge now looks very similar to my SOD swedge. That point, btw, is now a very sharp prick.
