Hi Jim, thanks

Well, still convinced, that this sword was not just used in the thrust, and encouraged by the banana cutting

and Richard's discription of the Pata lime cutting. I thought I would experiment slightly further, using the Firangi with a parallel , 180 degree arcing 'cut' with the fruit target elevated on a large 'wicker' candle stick.....

Melon anybody
