JS test pieces

[LongRifle]

This piece was an alternate for my JS panel.

I forged the blade from W1 round bar. 9.5” blade. .275” at the spine. Fast taper. 14.5” OAL.

The blade is polished to 800 grit with a wild auto-hamon (I can’t get a photo to show it).

The handle is heavily sculpted curly ash grown on my property.

416ss fittings that have been mirror finished.

$550 plus shipping. Add $65 for a buffalo over leather sheath.
