Hello, Here is my katana design specs. Mabye a pic in future, but for now I don't have anything better than MS paint and that makes katanas look like abominations. And I guess I could draw it, but it comes out the size of a watermelon.
So here is my design!
"Sakura" Blade: 23" from habaki, 33" w/ tang Tang: 10" Tsuka: 13" Finishings: Blackened steel with gold "features" (Ie, brassy coloured protruding designs) Mekugi: Bamboo x2 Menuki: Cherry Blossoms Habaki: Cherry Blossoms Tsuba: Cherry Blossom design Hamon: White frosted (As seen on Hanwei Ninjato/Katsumushi) Same: Rayskin (White) Ito/Sageo wrap: Red silk Saya: Black Magnolia wood (24") Blade Specs: 1095 DH w/ natural hamon, no bo-hi. Total length w/ saya: 37"
Well, that's my dream sword. If anyone can draw the design you would be forever worshipped =P
-Tajima

I made you a sketch with the rough dimensions you described, but I haven't been near a scanner lately to put it up!
