Looks great. Mine isn't a custom, just the ito was changed to leather. It is however one of my best mat cutters.

Beautiful hamon and well done tsukamaki. Thats a big sword - it's gotta be around 45" in overall length. w/o a bohi that must weigh well over 3 lbs.

Very beautiful, congrats.What is the weight without saya and may I ask how much you paid? Weight with saya is 1734g, without saya 1417g. I think i paid around 1150$ including shipping. (Custom blade length and profile, custom made habaki, niku blade, real japanese silk)

Very nice notare hamon! How does it handle with the 13" tsuka? Actually it is a 12,6" tsuka. While handling you feel the weight of course, but nothing unwieldy. Havnt cut with it, and i think i will never do, looks too nice like it is.
