Scratch stock worked great.

Oh man, that's hard work. For Ebony, I spring for the router bit instead to save my tired fingers.

I use to drop blades off at Daily saw but they are too far for me and a real pain to get to with traffic. But these shops what will made custom knifes are slowing going away. I has LRH (not around anymore) made us a couple pieces of shaper knifes. That was not exactly cheap.
