Brian, I bought one of Jonathan Irvin's antique 3-tine forks. They are sweet. A TON more spring than the newer ones. From what I understand you can get one of the newer 3-tine forks and grind them down to make them closer to the antique ones. Come out and throw with me sometime and you can give her a ride...

Yeah, I've got 2 of his sheaves. 15# & 20#. His forks look nice to. I think they are the newer union tools forks.

Yes, they are new Union Tool forks. I bend the tines in so
they are straight and I grind them down to a decent point. ------------- My kids wanted to be like me until they met Kevin Neis. Northern Illinois Highland Games and Clevenger Sheaf's and forks on Facebook or at http://jclev.tripod.com/ |
