Katana protos 2 and 3 came in today. They look better than 1 but kamis still don't know what to do with the handle.. I have not had a chance to go over them well or take pix but if the infection does not worsed overnight I'll try to get this done tomorrow.

Please don't push yourself, Uncle Bill. You're very important to all of us -- the most important thing is for you to get completely well!
 
Yes, Bill, as much as we want to see the pics we want you to regain your strength more.

How much are the katanas going to go for on average? Sorry if this has been discussed elsewhere -- I don't get here as often as I would like.

Thanks,

Clay

Thanks for concern. Got the pix and will post later.

These are an improvement but still not where we want to be.

Don't know if we will ever offer these on a production basis and don't know how much they will run if we do.

Just wondering if it wouldn't be worthwhile to let ¥vsa, Terry and the others with experience, try to enhance or, if necessary, redo the handles.

I hate to see good blades go down the tubes for lack of a good handle.

On Jim March's behalf, I gotta ask if they got the "battle bulge" right on these ones?

For some reason Kumar wants to make these handles round. They are stronger than hell, look okay, but we need a handle that is oval shaped and that guides the hand toward the cutting edge.
