Looking to trade for Carothers K18 or Waki
This is a one of a kind custom Waki from Ben Tendick. It's CPM 3V steel with Ben's expert heat treat. Ben's style is a bit of an homage to the Hartsfield style. Blade is 15" and the tsuka is 7.5" to 8". So it's long enough for a 2 handed grip. It has a tad more curvature than Ben's typical work. It also has a set of antique silver dragon menuki under the tsuka ito. The Tsuba is titanium. Comes with a kydex sheath. I'm in no hurry to get rid of this. This is one of those swords you don't see everyday. It's got the original edge. It's razor sharp. This thing would take an arm off in the blink of an eye.
