Good gravy, I hope I dont get a bunch of incredulous angry responses to this question, but here goes...
I have been thinking about hammering down the sharp corners on my tools including my rosewood mortise gauge and Starrett combo square. I have found the corners to be so damned sharp that just brushing them in my apron accidently gives me scratches. They are also a uncomfortable to hold. I knocked down the edges of my wooden mallet and now I love to toss it in the air and catch it! I probably wont be doing that with the Starrett...
What is wrong with this idea? If I did go for it, on what areas or tools should I NOT ease the corners? Has anyone else tried this?
Thanks, please be kind.
Bob
