Where are the pictures?

I just learned mine won't arrive before I leave this weekend, so I won't see it for another month.
 
Mine is supposed to deliver Monday. I can't wait to size it up against my satin AK.

I'm really tempted to strip it. I'd love to see what it looked like under the coating if anybody has stripped either size
 
No pictures and I haven't had much time to play yet but she is definitely a keeper. This might be my favorite one yet. I got sage with black canvas micarta, and it feels great
 
Mine has only cut air so far.... but it has wonderful feel and balance. Although it's a bit heavier than my more "traditional" katana of similar dimensions (Cheness Oniyuri), it just begs to be applied to the most substantial targets! I went with tanker/black canvas... it will be a user, and thus a stripper once the coating starts to wear.
 
Glad you like them. I was originally down for tanker/black canvas, but then I swapped to G10, as I thought a little extra weight in the handle might help the balance.

Ahem - didn't someone say something about pictures?
 
It's not a ganza Butaniku Short, I've had it for a while now, but I figured you all wouldn't mind a pic of my Butaniku Short with my AK. I love this thing. Feels amazing. I had David Brown make a sheath for me so it's perfect now. I think he used my blade as a template to make some additional sheaths if you all are looking for one. Believe it ran me between $150-$200...I can't remember. Turned out really nice though.

 
And when did this ganza happen? I missed it and the SwatManDu, both blades I would have bought a handful of if I had the chance. Had to get my Swats off the exchange, but don't know when I'll get a chance at another one of these bad boys. Not that I NEED another one... :)
