two new kwaikens with wood and ito

Jos, I understand what you're saying... there's been someone that has been hammering me to make the same knife without the wrap. Perhaps I should be taking his pressures more seriously. He wants it without the turk's head knot, as well, and I worry that it could slip. What are your thoughts?

In Europe we are quite used to "guardless" knives (think puuko for example). I don't think the omission of the turk's head knot would be a problem.

Personally, I would like to see one without the cordwrap, but that's just me of course. Plenty people like cordwraps.

Kind regards,

Jos
 
Oh, for crying out loud, I thought I was done with these for a bit! :D


Lemme see what I can do, but you guys'll have to wait a while - I've got a pair of BIG blades I'm working on, and the details are driving me nuts, so I can't rush it...
