The Seymour No.2, now long discontinued, was similar to the still-produced No.1 grass snath but with a thicker end diameter and a four-hole heel plate rather than three. The holes are arranged in a &#8220;\u2666&#8221; shape rather than the &#8220;\u25bc&#8221; arrangement on the No.1. Some older examples of this snath have capped nibs, with a three-pronged, domed, circular brad having been driven into the top of the nib to cover the recessed nut and projecting thread of the nib iron.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/site.baryonyxknife.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/SeymourNo2Snath60.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-medium wp-image-329
