I'm going to let the previous blade pattern stand. But I'm not going to use it. Instead, the following is what I've worked out where these are the half breadths, and the tip is given an 8" radius.

 0,  2.38 (i.e., 2-3/8)
 4,  2.38
 8,  2.38
12, 2.25  (i.e., 2-1/4)
16, 1.88  (i.e., 1-7/8)
20, 1.38
24, 0.75
28, 0.75

Note: Exact measurements won't matter. The numbers are just suggestions that will result is an eye-pleasing shape and a useful, somewhat powerful blade.




(Yeah, yeah. I need to insert a photo of the actual pattern, because the graph distorts the dimensions.
