Chris,

I enjoy your rye humor. I’m sorry he’s leaving the business, sorrier still that NOW I really can’t afford one of his saws, Thumbs, you’re supposed to be watching the video.

Mike, lay off the caffeine dude.

And Chris, nice going. Now that you’ve “Schwarz effected” Andrews saws, I won’t be able to find one anywhere !

(His stuff is awesome, and I think he’ll come out with something else just as cool.)

Chris, I could not agree with Don and the rest more. Please keep the humor flowing as it is the second best part of your reviews.

As far as Andrew stopping I must admit that I feel great sorrow for our field as he is just so very good at making his saws. The good news is that Ed is a very worthy replacement and though his saws are a bit different they are still great saws in their own right. Fred

I promised myself that I would stop responding to blogs unless I hade a question or could provide an ASKED for solution. This will be the second time in two days I have broken it. I am sorry already.

Chris:
Pleas keep it up with the jokes. Yes there are some who don’t “understand” but they will as they grow to love you like we do. It’s the blog format they can not see the twinkle in your eye. I hade a friend from England who would stamp her foot first so everyone would know it was a joke.

Mike:
like chill dude. Save it for the real evil in this world.

To think I could not get to sleep last night worrying I hade been horrible to Ajax yesterday.

My grandmother always told me “A workman is worthy of his hire”. It’s a truth that cuts both ways.

Chris,

It would absolutely (to borrow your word…) be a shame for you to curb your proclivity for injecting humor into an oftentimes dry subject. Your sense of the absurd is one of the qualities that makes this blog part of my daily reading, and your writing has always reminded me of a less-acerbic/crotchety David E. Petzal. And yes, that’s a good thing.

I look forward to Ed turning out some wonderful saws. I just got a saw sharpened by him and it’s amazing. Cuts dry oak like buttah.

Memo to self: Stop making jokes in your blog entries, Chris. Really, people don’t think you are funny or understand your jokes. Maybe you should just paint a table saw push stick pink and put that in your blog.

I don’t know Andrew, his saws, the price he charges for them or the reason he decided to close shop. However, it does appear that you are a closed minded arrogant @#$. Why do you have to get into “So if you are a grumpy individual who thought Andrew charged too much for his saws, I suggest that you turn to this heartwarming story about a crow that became a mother to a stray kitten and fed it worms. Maybe that will soothe you.” What is wrong with someone having a different opinion than you or perspective on how much a tool, any tool, is worth to them? Maybe the next thing you’ll be up to is cancelling the subscriptions and online memberships of all those that disagree with you or don’t share your interests. Your comment is offense and way below what I thought you where like. Very disappointing.

Mike
