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.

Looks great! fun to say the least.

I dig it!  What kind of dimensions are we looking at?

 

Loving the continuation of the hammer marks into the handle via the textured aluminum, well done.

Of course Stormcrow likes this, haha

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

More like the Dha and parang than katana

Something for the Zombie Problem

I am glad the outbreak has not reached you yet and that you are well prepared.

We are having a pretty hard time here and hope foijewoaijljkljkllkjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj

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

27" long, about 3/16" at the thickest point. I'm a big fan of your stuff by the way, but maybe you could already tell.

Yeah it's basically a dha with a nontraditional handle.

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.
