This one has taken me awhile and is my single-longest outstanding order. It is based off an old "HOS" design and is the 2nd or 3rd (I can't remember) attempt at this blade. I wanted to get it right and give the man a cool hamon since he's been waiting so long for his blade.
This is forged out of W-2 and is about 1/4 inches thick -- he wanted something to clear brush, and I think it'll do the job. 
The hamon is one of my favorites -- one side is sorta "bubbly" and the other is more "normal" with a lot of utsuri. It is 19 1/2 inches overall with 11 inches of brush-cuttin' edge. It is big enough that it didn't quite fit in my little light box (as you can probably tell.
)
Thanks for checking it out --
