Macman, do you have any closer pictures of the box blade? I'm going to either need to find or build one this spring; I've seen the cheap brinly 38" one at casa depot for $190, but I question the build quality of a lot of newer stuff (if anyone has that and it's decent, let me know). I saw that reproduction thread for the #40 back blade and that is nice, but I don't think I have nearly the resources to pull something that nice off.
