1050 Naginata


Recommended Posts

Well guys and gals I am putting up for sale this wonderful Naginata. the total length of the blade is 36" with a 21" nagasa. The Motohaba is just under 1 1/2" the blade thickness at the mune-machi is 3/16 the blade thickness at the shinogi is 1/4"

The images do not do this blade justice at all there is so much activity in this blade that it truly pains me to sell it. I still have to ad the file marks to the nakago, and to drill the meguki whole. The hamon is Choji, midare.

Great work , I made a couple of them a few years ago but, I never could get a decent Hamon ? I found out later I used 1060 (modified ) had a little too much manganese and chrome . It did turn out pretty good , nice sharp and good profile . It was also a kamakura type blade . You did a great job .
