•••anither what is it•••?

About 3" wide. Would it make a good earth anchor?
(The top one is a multitool lol)

never thought about a sickle section as an earth anchor.

Cycle bar blade.

Its a tooth off a chicle bar or swather for cutting hay

Methinks O'Gorman tried them along time ago probably others as well New they'd be more then any earth anchor out there

Sickle blade

I saw a write up on using them for earth anchors, think I book marked it on my laptop because I have 2 9' sickle bars in the barn loaded up with those

Thanks!! I found a bunch in the trash. Some of them new.

I have some of those welded on the end of 20" rebar stakes.
I don't think a yote can jack those stakes out of the ground.
I don't use many because I don't like to pull them back out of the ground
Getting old isn't fun. Lol

Yes sir, or ditches.

Swather tooth I've got a bucket of them in the garage off an old Heston

Hey! Don't bring me into this!

Well, you had it coming for no reason lol.

Serrated Pig Castrator!

OUCH!!

They're pretty hard steel. Would use up some drill bits drilling holes for the cable. But I think it would work. They sure wouldn't bend and they have more surface area than most earth anchors. I don't know if you'd ever get them back.

They might be a bit too hard and break on a rock

Found a brand new one just like that last year at the farm I hunt. No hay anywhere near that place so I'm guessing they use that same machine to cut left over corn stalks down close to the ground. Found it a few days after the farmer did it.

You live in Austin? I ask cause you seem like a sissy, a girl. No offense, I heard you may be hooked up with a Chic from the north called Tonie.

They are used on combines also .

I dug a haybine tooth just like that yesterday from the manure pile.

That's what all my disposable stakes are. Made a driver out of stainless round stock. You gotta pull up hard when you drive them in rocks cause they don't bend they occasionally break.

some folks have me weld those onto 3/8" smooth rod stakes

Think i could sell them?

In Charles Dobbins trap fastening book, he mentioned that he used them as far back as the late 40s.
He also mentioned how hard they are to drill.

Did you skip your meds today? We are talking about sickle bar teeth

They make great earth anchors. Came up with the idea 20 years ago.
