Re: A big Bulino cat
Barry, I figured as many times you have been to Italy you would use a burin ground like they all use. The Lindsay 70 degree point is exactly the same as his other v angle tools with the patented parallel heel grind, where as the Italians use the burins ground from the belly like the Phil Coggan burin to a very small face with no heel. And you are right about the face being rhomboid/lozenge shape rather then square. And most are ground to 80 degrees but a surprising number are 90 degree v grinds from the belly up to a very small face. And again in a rhomboid shap rather than square.
