You may have seen Sydney got smacked by a 1/100 weather event for most of last week, lots of flooding, trees down, power out etc etc. We escape with minimal damage and a little bit of water in the garage etc.

I did however have some tree branches and junk that the huge ironbark in the front yard spat out, including a large branch that too the neighbour's power (still off poor buggers).

Decided to grab one of the 1311s and go knock the new off it for fun...!!!!

Can say that I way in anyway disappointed (I knew that from the other user I have) ....

Way to go ANDY! I would carry my 1311 in the truck but it is to long to reside where my 911 does and it's so handy between the seat bracket and the transmission tunnel that I don't want to have to stow one any where else.

I forgot to add here, the edge was just as it came from the yard, once I went and cleaned the crud off the blade I spent about 5 minutes on it with a really crappy paddle strop I keep in the garage, it is shaving sharp as a result.

With all the rain they have been receiving in Oz, I was afraid that Andy might have to build an ARK! Glad to see that he and all our other Aussie brethren made out OK. smile

Andy could build the Ark! He has two of each blades...of course for some reason I think he would con Magoo into doing all the hard labor wink
