I have been looking for a 9 shank disc chisel for corn stalks instead of my 5500 IH. I get a few long pieces of stalks that get run down and the stalk cutter doesn't pick them up. I thought a disc chisel might work better. There use to be several of them around of many makes but they are getting hard to find. My first choices would be a 6500 CIH or a Glencoe. Either seemed to work ok. I found a Glencoe that has no springs on the shanks. I assume it has shear bolts. We don't have any rock to speak of. We used to trip a blow beam very seldomly and was wondering if one without spring shanks would work ok and if this was an option or what.
