Cutting with Custom Cheness Tenchi & Bloopers

[dabozzcrg]

mh doesnt seem to be that sharp when i see your test cuts

[brasshandmartialarts]

It all looks good...just need to work on the zen application a bit more...:)

Hey look , an attractive Tenchi. who'd have even thought it possible? great work Hiroshi. some of the guys mention it looks dull. I was thinking the same thing, it looks like those water bottles are giving the sword some serious resistance. the one thing that really jumped out at me though was that the wall must not be as close to you as it looks. I though you were gonna be chopping brick.

good cutting Hiro

[icyberia]

yea, it's getting kinda dull. It's just barely paper cutting sharp.

[Ianflaer]

hehehe getting spoiled by that crazy sharp Bushido huh? how's the edge on the Bushido holding up?

[icyberia]

the bushido is still super sharp.

@icyberia Huh, even with that clam shape blade, it's still getting dull? I have the oniyuri and the onibasu, both still cut like butter

[icyberia]

It's the 9260, its very durable but the edge retention just isnt up to par.

[tkbomber]

That's too bad. Amazing job on the tsuka and everytihing; it looks sweet!

[icyberia]

thanks

[viper2788]

@icyberia how does the edge retention compare to the kaze?

[icyberia]

@viper2788 They are both made of the same steel and tempered the same way. Theoretically the edge retention be the same.

[icyberia]

and yes, that wall was very close!

[TheMasterSlasher]

I think it needs to be sharpened.

But, it looks great!

Pretty good work. I noticed some out of place diamonds, but with practice, you'll get them perfect. I did the ebony stain on my Rika Tonbo remount. It turned out nice!

Check out the remount I'm doing for Maynar on SOM, or WSS.

really a nice sword...great work

[wizzbangtg]

Looks good. It gives that blade a real nice theme. Great work on that.
