Hey there folks, long time no post :) Concentrating on catching up with customer back logs, working with a few companies, and learning new things :)

Was going to use this blade to practice polishing before I learn to forge, butttt as always, bills bills bills...

So this Hanwei Tsunami wakizashi got a fully make over.

-Reworked original habaki

-Made new seppa with a traditional rokusho patina.

-reworked original tsuka to a full wrap of samegawa

-Antique fuchi in maple leaves and wave theme.

-Antique menuki in Tiger theme

-New hand carved horn kashira

-Saya was reworked and given HAND CARVED ribbing (this took 13 hours!) for the first third then a lacquered and polished or "samesaya" finish on the lower two thirds. She has new hand carved horn koiguchi, kurigata, and kojiri

-New and fitted simple iron tsuba that I gave a traditional black patina and sealed in wax.

Priced just to cover materials and not even all the labor on the saya ;)

~~$575 Shipped $500~~ $375 Shipped CONUS, Please add any paypal fee's when applicable.

Thanks everyone!

Cheers,

Sal' of Jizamurai Customs

That looks absolutely killer. I wanted to let you know that it's now mandatory to add an image of the sale item with an accompanying note showing your username and the current date. We know you're a straight shooter, but it's now a rule. Sorry for the hassle. Thanks.

Thanks, Salvatori. I appreciate it.

Yep, it's unfortunate. Feels kind of slimy to ask long time members with fantastic selling histories to do stuff like this, but too many a-holes have been showing up and we needed to crack down.

RufusScorpius: The shoulder surgery is fairly straightforward, it's the recovery that is a real horror show. Not looking forward to it, truth be told Jan 22, 2021 18:14:51 GMT

christain: Sorry to hear you are still having medical troubles, Rufus.

But, hey....you've got a strong wife and healthy girls. Let THEM do the paddling.
