No problem David.

I have at any given time ten or so of these things lying around, but I just don't have that many triple fullers around right now. Personally I think you'll find more or less the same tolerances in native blades width wise - perhaps some differences in thickness and of course certainly in flex, stiffness and hardness.
As for how they were supplied - I know a lot of the single fullered kaskara blades were delivered fairly rough in appearance. For takouba it seems the tips were often re profiled and among some groups like the Tuareg the preferred methods of sharpening left very rough surfaces and edges. My impression, which might be wrong, was typically that they'd be delivered with a "factory" edge (meaning a bit blunt). I don't think anyone would claim these were being imported for aesthetics but simply for the steel quality, so a rough finish wouldn't have been a detractor.
Cheers,
Iain
