Wow, that's gorgeous!

Could you explain the San Mai: "0-2 + C45 (1045) with a 1.2842 core"

The O2/1045 I understand, but what's the core?

1.2842 is O-2 in his country.

like it very much! very nicely done. would the design benefit from the back end of the handle being rotated up to provide more finger clearance?

I think that's really sweet. Awesome craftsmanship. I would have maybe tapered the tang but I won't question your genius

It's a lovely piec of work !!! Frank

Thanks a lot guys. I'm glad you like it.

And yes the 1.2842 is the 0-2 core.

Here's a shot from the other side, where you can see the subtle grain in the ebony handle.
