Finished this one a couple of weeks ago. Hand-forged from W2. It has a hamon that is undeveloped. Check the Instagram video for some of that detail below. It's quick in the hand but still has a little heft for chopping. I feel like hanging onto this one but it's probably better for someone with slightly smaller paws than mine. Lost all my photo studio stuff when I moved so pics are what they are.
