navasky Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Forged from 4140. The handle is hammered aluminum with a rubberized cord wrap. I haven't got a chance to use it yet but it feels great in the hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheoRockNazz Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Loving the continuation of the hammer marks into the handle via the textured aluminum, well done. Of course Stormcrow likes this, haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prevenge Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 I actually thought this was another piece made by Stormcrow at first lol. It looks like the bastard child of a katana and a machete.....and I , for one, would be proud to adopt it. Very nice Kachete...Matana....hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darious Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 that is a beautiful piece. Loving the Turks head Tsuba! You will have to let us know how it handles. With that rubberized cord wrap do you think there will be any issues with slipping when wet? Cant wait for the update Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a big fan of your stuff by the way, but maybe you could already tell. 14 hours ago, ThomasPowers said: More like the Dha and parang than katana Yeah it's basically a dha with a nontraditional handle. 3 hours ago, KRS said: I am glad the outbreak has not reached you yet and that you are well prepared.

I rubber-impregnate all my wraps. They're more slippery when wet than bare cord but less so than an epoxied wrap. The wrap itself provides enough texture that I've never had to seriously worry about losing my grip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
