Nice finds! I have a question: Is the first one pictured the same tool as the one in the other two pictures? The reason I ask is b/c I'm not sure if you cleaned it and it looked like that or it is the way the light is shining on it. It looks like you found two tools to me. That first one looks like a monster! Happy huntin'!

They are the same tool just the sunlight on it I guess...mjm

Glad you finally got to tunneled out and were able to find a nice one. We are getting rain tonight. Better than snow though.

Thanks rock it was much needed.I found as I'm getting older it takes me longer to recover from winter.My butt was dragging when I got home.We are gonna get more rain which is OK to melt the snow and take the frost out of the ground.Then I can start digging I got alot of catching up to do.....mjm
