Thanks guys. It took me all afternoon in 95F heat. If they offer a Limited Edition with a full convex zero edge, I know it will be expensive. So maybe I saved a few bucks. I just think that swords should be bare steel.


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

Crazy wicked blade, HD.
Is it just me or does that hamon line look like it almost reaches the spine?

I have tried, but I just can't find the hamon line for certain. Maybe if I polish the blade some more it will show itself.

Vic, I'm pretty sure you can see it on the second and third pic. Maybe I'm seeing things or maybe it's my 36" monitor.

don't think that's the hamon, looks like machining marks.

looking good HD! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Crazy, well then the machining matches the wavy outline of a hamon.

Here's the second picture HD posted, you can see the machining marks. Also, all the swamp rat hamons I've seen are straight/linear, not wavy or clay applied like that picture you posted.
