@TheBreakback ... Fuller (aka Blood Grooves) are problematic since they have a tendency to accummulate oxidation, and in reality, serve no purpose. Haz
@Hazamayakiba i suppose, but swords in a modern society serve no realistic purpose either. other than martial arts and decoration. and if your sword is well maintained there should be no problem with oxidation.
Now, this looks VERY interesting. I have always had something of a fetish for long tsuka and deep sori, although functionally I prefer short tsuka and shallow sori (it's what I've been "raised" on). The fittings are beautiful, and this sword just makes me drool. I was saving up for another Albion, but Albion just got competition.
@Cyberstilemaster ... "The Best Katana" is the one that saves your life when the chips are down...or the one that you enjoy owning the most, or the one that has become a part of your martial arts soul through years of training as a "team". Now ask me an easier question Kevin, like how to convince our Government that we should not be wasting money at war overseas, so our government can more wisely spend the countless billions its been wasting here within the U.S.A. to help out "WE THE PEOPLE".
Did you make this?!?! Sick buddy! there is something to be said about a good sword, it never runs out of ammo! I have a friend who would love to see this thing.
@MrBallistics ... Hey Hey Mr. "B" ! You've taught me that a great semi-automatic handgun... TRUMPS...a great sword, unless of course it's in my hands and I'm sneaking up on you while you're loading your magazine !
Haz ps. the Zombie sold just a few days ago...but they'll be others if your friend visits my main website in approximately 8 weeks from today.
@Hazamayakiba That is freaking awesome man! I had looked at your videos before, and I guess I just thought it was your collection. I will definately let Sia know, he has wanted a sword like that for the whole 12 years I have known him!
In pekiti tirsia kali, they train to attack gun wielding assailants with their knives. Some insane stuff!!! Id say, give me my AK, send as many knife/swords at me as you want, lol.
@malevolenceXXXensues ... Not Really an Apocalypse. It was just a strange dream about one brown earth encrusted Zombie Demon, and no matter where I went or how hard or fast I cut him, he was always there, still coming after me, hence the earthy brown color of this sword. :::Haz plays the sound track to X-Files:::
Good to see you back, Sir. I love your work. I slapped together a mild steel prototype of a weapon I would give a left nut to see in 1060. Would it be possible for you to do such a thing?
@bamboo4tameshigiri .... Bamboo... No matter what asian forge you or anyone else might order a sword from these days, the recent Yemen Terrorist Air Cargo Mailings have near put a halt to swords making it out of overseas countries, unless a 4 to 6 month wait is ok with you, and besides, I am not "into" 1060 Steel. Keep those "jewels" of yours right where they are, you might need 'em some day ! Ha Ha Ha
@Hazamayakiba I'm not talking about a sword. Imagine a short staff, full tang, with blades on both ends and a blade trap in the middle. Can anyone make me something like that?
whenever i see your swords it makes me feel a desire to buy one but my damn finances ruin this dream
if it was just the sword thats beautiful it would be awesome already but the chosen saya and the overall feel of the sword kind of swing in harmony
i wish that you can make swords your whole life and make a living on it so that you dont need to worry for money to buy new steel or stuff you need for living
@VengeanceIV ... V-Man, I'm 61 years old and can't remember what I said 5 minutes ago (according to my wife) ! But YES, the blade is in full mirror-like polish, accomplished by the tedious use of whetstone and fingerstones. I hope I've answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks V-Man. Haz
O,O by far my favorite looking katana :D if i get the cash im sooooooooo buying this one first
