October 10, 201114 yr Just finished this wakizashi, 15 1/8 nagasa, 21 inches overall, 7/16 inches sori, 1 1/8" motohaba, 3/16 " kasane, shinogi zukuri sugata. It is at about 85% foundation polish, with some scratches and a couple of minor scale pits left that will be reduced in finish polish. I am hoping to focus more on forging new blades than polishing so I am hoping to sell as is. PM if interested. Aloha, Steve and again...
October 15, 201114 yr Howzit Steve, Another kick### sword! Not having made a sword, but having read much about it, I can only imagine how difficult the polishing process is. Of course, I used to imagine what it would be like to have children, but the reality has proven infinitely more complex. As always, I find your work inspiring. Aloha, - Robert
October 17, 201114 yr Author Thanks for the comments guys; I am going to work on the polish of this piece some more and so am withdrawing it for sale at this time. Aloha, Steve
