They have been fired a lot.
We lived in town when he first built them. We shot them in the yard with paper. Put them away in a hurry and sat on the porch like nothing happened when the police rolled up. The cloud of smoke and newspaper in the yard gave it away....

They do look great Don. Your father knew how to enjoy life!
Thanks for the comments. He worked at Proto Tool Co. as a die maker, I am pretty sure they are some type of tool steel. Very talented wood worker as well.
