Let’s try something new! This is my first time trying the competition size 120 cm Hartstahl blade and it is HUGE! I start by testing out the right lay and hafting angle as well as the right snath and then we really put it to the test.

In a competition with myself, I go for 30 seconds as fast as I can and then for 2 minutes at more normal working tempo.

And you need to see these results!
