The AK is fantastic but also fantastically ugly especially if you are used to Ninhonto(real prewar katanas). I would love to take one even farther than Ban by machining off all the guards so I could fit a traditional style handle and tsuka and do a nice wrap. I would definitely want Ban to do the edge.
I do have a sword similar to what I want with an AK It is not Infi but it is really good spring steel that can chop cement easily and a beautiful silk wrap.

Ted,
That has taken a whole new look thanks to the "Ban" effect. It really looks incredible. Those thin strips of print it effortlessly cut speak volumes to the character of that stick of steel. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" />
Enjoy that short sword and wear it in trips in the wilderness! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
Peace.

That AK looks really sweet. Man, that Ban character sure does a sweet job. I heard through the grapevine that there's been a new addition to the Ban clan in the last little bit. Wonder where he finds the time to do such sweet work.
Cheers

That sheath is wicked! I had Dwayne make me a shark skin inlay sheath a few years ago for my INFIcoot. It looked pretty good, but not as great as your sheath!
