Latest "Bamboo" Kodzuka

Jason Cutter · Dec 14, 2005

Heres my latest Forged Kodzuka with a "bamboo" styled handled as per the customer's request. Its 4.5inches of blade in hand-forged-to-shape 1095 carbon steel with a claypbacked egde hardening. The hamon has double lines. You'll need to look really carefully to see it in the pictures. Green Canvas Micarta handles, hand shaped, black G10 liners. Dropped leather sheath with some hand-tooling.

Thanks for looking. Jason.

Jason, you are getting to be shockingly good. Outstanding! I always have a preference for anything that is bamboo or resembles it.
