RONIN!!!

[Taz]

Well, after i botched up the first Ronin, which im sure all of you remember. if not, just think of the ugliest knife and it will prob come to mind. it was a recurved double edge tanto with handle curving down.

Well, now I got better at grinding and here is the REAL RONIN! I just need to smooth out the handle shape a little more and HT.

1/4" O-1, flat ground on he contact wheel, finished with 400 grit belt. Now I get to HT it!

Handle shape and blade design were of a friend. Handle looks kinda odd, but its what he wanted, so i made i the best I could. I will prob clean it up more.

Hey Taz...looking at the background, you leave me wondering if you took that picture naked! Those look like your boxers?

Thanks guys. Ask and you shall receive! Here is one where it is almost done. Just gotta epoxy the handles, polish them, and make sheath

Those aren't boxers. Old pair of shorts
