  • @Revan9729 thanks but I haven't spoken in Czech in a couple years. I would like a Pavel Bolf Katana and Nihonto Wakizashi similar mounts. Also I am just inquiring as during the summer I will visit The Netherlands and The Czeck Republic and actually get the prices so, until about October/November,we would just be planning. Thanks

  • @NumeralKillerlive Ah sorry.i saw you listed Prague as your hometown so i just assumed you are Czech.

    Sure, think about what you'd like in terms of koshirae and let me know.

    I live a few miles away from Pavel, so If you're planning on visiting him let me know,we can meet up and talk things through.

  • @Revan9729 sorry not "label bold soured" I ment Pavel Bolf mounted. Thanks again

  • Sure thing,so a Nihonto waki and Bolf's tanto ?

  • hi Luka hope your well, video is excellent, you got some skillz dude! my wakizashi needs a new saya koiguchi has out grown the habaki ... you touched briefly on the topic in the comments, but

    which wood do you use for your custom work? im from england so we not to far away (in terms of local wood) ...

    in my own research i thought of either birch, beech or maple... harder to carv, but free of salt, less moisture, tight grain, blemish free.

    your thoughts would help me out greatly .tc

  • Thanks,usually the softer the wood the better,i use olše (as we call it),or "alder" in English if I'm not mistaken,a type of birch.

    It's a harder wood compared to honoki,which is used traditionally,but still a relatively soft wood.

    Not to hard to carv,but I'd advise making yourself a round chisel,It will do a cleaner job and the carving will be round,which is what you want because the blade should only touch at the edges.Also never use sand paper inside of the saya,it will scratch the blade.

see all
