[edit] Expanding

I myself dont use a boline as i am a kitchen witch of sorts so i use my athame for both ritual and practical use, even so i realise this page needs work from someone that has experience with bolines. If possible could someone please do something about it? Grey witch 11:16, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Boline vs Burin?

Buckland, in Buckland's Complete Book of Witchcraft, describes a working pointed tool called a Burin, which he also calls a White-Handled Knife which he does not name. About:Alternative Religions does call it a Boline or Bolline and says it's use can be traced to Druid customs, and that in Welsh custom it is called a Kerfan.
