Not to hijack CiK's bandsaw blade thread.
Is there any use for chains where the teeth are down to nubs?
I have maybe 30-40 chains after 30+ years of heating with wood and I can't bring myself to toss them.

You can cut them and mix a bit of paint with a drill... But honestly this is better... https://www.walmart.com/ip/GoodCook...lloon-Whisk-Set-Assorted-Sizes/495930977Or snake a drain pipe... Otherwise... I got nothing.
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

I didn't know if a knife maker could use them?
May not be viable if they are different grades of metal.

They make great shop decorations hanging by a nail in my shop! Usually, they are pretty worn out when I change, but there's always a chance I will need one one day... LOL. But I doubt it.

I keep a few around just in case I have to use a saw on something I know will wreck a good chain.
Beyond that, they go in a bucket for a trip to the scrap yard.

For what is coming up this summer in mass Civil disobedience with a little ingenuity I would think they could be made into an admirable chain flail. Your only limited by.your imagination.

Threads like this help me realize I am not the only one using worn out stuff for wall hangers. Have a lot of stuff I should just throw away.

This has got legs^^^^ Pro-tip......spiral wrap a chain around a baseball bat and it can be used for pesky illegal migrants, since you have quite a few chains you can make many bats, good for gifts at Christmas.
