Hey guys! I rarely get a chance to build one of these to put up for grabs, but I squeeked this one in. If you want to see a little WIP I did on it, check out this thread...

This one is a narrower, slightly more traditional profile that my standard waki. It is very quick in hand and balances right on the plunge. I features full length fullers and my signature tapered fuller on the spine. The seppa and menuki are hammered copper that is heat colored/aged.
The tsuba is titanium that I orange peel textured and heat anodized.

Here are the specs....

OAL - 22.5"
Blade - 14"
Steel - .295" CPM 3V Heat treat and proper LN Cryo done by myself @ 60rc
Fittings - Ti tsuba, hammered copper seppa and menuki.
Handle - Black tsuka ito. Epoxy soaked. Rock solid with a natural feel.
Sheath - black kydex
Price - SOLD Priority shipping. Can ship international for about $30 more.
Paypal or postal money order preferred

This is SOLD! Thanks for looking!
 
Wow! That is freakish. Just plain awesome. I wish I could carry something just like this daily.
 
Stop making perfection like this!! .....seriously, I'm going to crack and buy something!!!!
 
That is some excellent, very clean work :thumbup:
 
very sick blade even I might have been tempted at this any plans on making a 16 to 18 incher?
 
Wow...... You work never fails to impress me. It's inspiring to such a degree that looking at it as well as at a few of the other highly talented craftsman's pieces, such as TKSteingass's, has caused me to buy my first belt sander and really start taking the idea of learning how to make a blade seriously. I'm telling you this because if you ever happen to see a post with my name on it in the exchange selling something I made I want you to know that your art was part of the reason why I got there. Thank you.
