i need to finish the saya lining, shape the saya, make a bicote collar for it, a micarta throat, then i get to polish the blade!
i cant wait to "unleash" the hamon.. i think it will be my best to date
please let me know what you think
thanks

Dude, you have way too much talent. Sweet blade...love the handle set up, too!
 
thanks!
i cant take credit for the handle though, that was Bill's idea as was the wood selection
thanks though!
i am hoping to finish the saya and polish the blade this week.
take care

thanks guys!
but like they say if you want to get the feel for something, study the real thing.. so that's why i have been hanging out here.
thanks for the help and encouragement

I'm working on a small Tanto project now. Following your photos was like studying a tutorial. thanks
 
Awesome job, I'm working on the logistics of a small tanto myself, I hope mine comes out half as nice as yours. Great work!
 
thanks guys!
i just hope to be as much help to others as people here have been to me.
i posted more pictures btw.
thanks!

Unreal. Major piece you have created there. I am going to have commission something soon. I can't take it any longer.
 
*grins*
thanks guys!
i am almost done. just finished polishing the blade, and all i have left to do is assemple it and complete the fits.
i should have pics up on Monday

as for a commissioned peice, i have a couple more projects in line, but i am more than willing to take it on as long as you are wiling to be on a list for a little bit.
thanks so much!
