The swords in the videos below. Latest test cut video with Tinker made Deva Slayer, on 4.8 liter bottles and a couple smaller bottles. My student test cut with his Martial Art Korean Sword.

I still love the way that Tinker of your sings as it happily passes through each target Lancelot.
I looks like you are getting back into the swing of things (pun intended). You had some really nice cut on those monster bottles.

The sword is 4lbs 13oz and with a balance at 7.625" from guard!

My right forearm still pains on certain moves but it is better now. I can do most moves without sustaining the pain.

The sword is 4lbs 13oz and with a balance at 7.625" from guard! I actualy thought it looked heavier. By the way, thanks for consistently demonstrating excellent footwork and edge allignment. Folks can get away with crooked cutting on most normal swords because the extreem sharpness makes up for their mistakes, but if that big blade of yours is not perfectly straight on the cut I imagine you can tell pretty quickly.

Yup. The broad blade's resistance increases tremendously by the slightest variation on the edge alignment. It does feel heavier than the stats shows. The momentum was tremendous. Hard to bring it into motion and hard to stop.
