Title: Couple of CEAT Beasts
Post by: Shinpathy on July 14, 2017, 05:55:40 AM: These are some seriously large super dried willow I guess...

Huge edges + spines and very full profiles very softly pressed... at crazy weights!

This one is 1190 grams, 45-46mm edges on the caliper:

Both are standard SH blade lengths and standard width.

It's a pity really , part of me really wants a mega size ceat hitman , even if the dried-to-within-an-ounce-of-its-life willow could explode at any moment . The prices are good , but id get high blood pressure anticipating the mandatory stuffups and delays , and possibly getting 2lb12 when i ordered 2lb8 etc etc .

Now that i think about it , the ceats ive recently seen on ols all have burnt in ceat stampings , so maybe these are from somewhere else .
