Pat, I have a few that are almost square. That is what happens when you hit a rock with a round one. :)
Never seen a square disc blade. I would think the corners would be subject to breakage. I doubt we see much new disc technology as the time for soil tillage is rapidly fading and No-till has become increasingly accepted.

Never heard of them either and I was born and raised in farm country. Still live in farm country.
Are you looking for something like at the link?

Pat, never heard of square discs. Square axles, yes. My Brown harrow has a lever to adjust the gang angle for more aggressive cutting. Can you adjust yours? It's a great option to have. My smaller Howse is fixed, both are notched. I have thought about putting rounds on the rears, anyone try that?

Pat,
Asked the old man. In all his years he can't recall running across them. In fact he couldn't fathom why you would want such a thing.
Notched can be pretty aggressive. As swamp said you can run notched and rounds... You can adjust as well depending on your setup.

Are you sure you're not thinking disk center hole for the axel shaft? Round, Hex, Square?
Round disks give a smoother finish when the last pass is done shallow. To get more aggressive it is just a matter of weight and angle.

I am also thinking they intended to say square shaft holes. Otherwise makes no sense.

Hey Pat,
I know what you are asking about. The square discs can be pretty hard to find. Here is a link to the discs shown in the photo you speak of. I don't know if they make the blades available for use on other units besides their own. Can't hurt to give them a call.

Pat, if you contact them please let us know what you find. It seems like their web and facebook sites have not been active since 2012. Sorry if it is a dead lead - but it shows you are correct about the existence of square blades.
