HOT! off the Fire.

You can see the hamon even now coming out. I know the picture is not that good. But you can also see the layers of the tamahagane showing here.

I am going to ruff it out today.

If things go well i will start to have it polished tomorrow.

Differently heat treated, at the spine near the handle it is 4.0mm but will taper off to 2.5mm near the tip if i do it rite.

Notice the handle is still soft. It was protected by the extended handle bolted on to keep the HOT fire away from the hands.
