Mostly good experience with cooks with a few minor glitches.
These were with band breakage at the weld.
James has been a fine example of good customer service.
I bought 20 or 30 blades a few years ago and they included a cam for my wm sharpener at no cost.
I am just finishing up sharpening my falls worth of both WM and Cooks blades.
The cam works well after a slight mod due to interference with the index pivot.
James sent me several blades which he told me are a different steel than the ones I had a problem with.
Haven't used any yet, but with our mild weather every week or so may fire the mill up.
