Default Black and Decker Workmate - still with dangerously sharp edges?

A cast alloy Workmate? Never heard of one. Are you sure it's a Black &

The originals were cast iron - I have one.
It was only later that the legs became angle iron.



Correction Just checking mine which is 30+ years old - it part cast and
part pressed steel but substantially more sold than what is now sold as
a workmate.


Think that's the same as mine - bought in 1981.
