I forgot to add this to my previous video.
These are some tanto made by a very skilled Czech smith called Pavel Bolf,
i will be polishing and mounting them.
First is a regular hira zukuri tanto,sugaha hamon with bo utsuri,which of course is not yet visible since the blade is in arato polish.
Other two are Satsumaage,for those of you who don't know Satsumaage were born by repairing broken blades,they weren't made as a standard geometry.
I already started polishing the bigger Satsumaage,i only polished it with kongo-do stone but hamon is already visible,working with binsui now, I'll post some pictures when I'm finished.
Nice. Keep us posted on the progress

I sure will,I'm about half way through with big satsumaage,so polish should be finished by the end of the week,koshirae will probably take me a little longer, i have to do my best with these blades.
