this is all three.each has a specific task.

This is the hook knife for removing overhead and wall attached comb.



This is the pointed 90 degree knife to cut thru comb overhead or wall.


This is the ofset flat knife for cutting comb in joist areas when comming from the side.

You can see the slight offset of the blade to scape the comb off roofs or underlayment.

Thanks

Are you sure you didn't get mad at your golf putters one day?    Good looking tools there.   Lets see them in action.   I bet you can reach in tight places with those.

No not at my golf putters. But the gas powered trimmer that died now lives again.

Made from the solid steel shaft inside the tube. That will teach my other trimmers to start when I want the to run.

Nice!  My DH made me one for our various top bar hives, like the center one but not angled.  Handy skill to have, being able to make your own tools

John, put me down for a set.
How long are they? Currently my italian hive to is my long reach tool.

The hook is15 1/2 inches long
The pointed one is 16 1/2 inches long.
The Flat blade one is 23 inches long.

I can make them as long as 5 1/2 feet long or as short as you want them. Just let me know and I will try and round up the meterials as quickly as possible.
