Abstract
A wear-resistant alloy is inlaid in a channel along the undersurface of a cutting edge of a ground-engaging implement. The wear-resistant alloy is in the form of individual blocks which are brazed within the channel. The joints between contiguous blocks are non-parallel to the general direction of travel of the ground-engaging implement for improved tool wear.
