It seems DARPA is at it again, this time with bullets that can change direction in flight... check out the article on Discover Magazine

That is a fantastic sword Bryan. Congrats on your effort. Btw, I've been a full time HS English teacher for 14 years... time flies!

Definitely worth the money for Iaido, but since they're not made of HC steel, not meant for anything other than kata.

I woke up this morning thinking of a robbery that I hadn’t thought of in years. The man that I would hire from time to time as a gardener showed up for work one morning bringing a helper and I put them to work in the front garden. In time the gardener needed something that he didn’t have and left his helper working while he drove to wherever to get whatever. His helper then slipped into the patio and pocketed a ring that my house girl left on the table. She watched him do this. I locked both gates trapping him in the garden and got the ring back. The gardener returned in due time saying that he had not gotten all and needed to go elsewhere. I pointed to his helper cowarding in the corner looking guilty as sin and told the gardener to take the dude with and when he returned I didn’t want to see the helper. The gardener asked for an explanation, I obliged and my house girl joined in with much to say. That was the last I saw of him. There is much theft in my country. About 3 years ago, I was being lazy and didn't want to mow the lawn (front or back)... a guy in a red truck stopped and asked if I wanted it done, would charge me $30 for the whole thing, and I said yes. The nest day, I heard my dogs barking, but didn't think much of it till one of my neighbors came by and asked if one of our dogs was missing... I went outside and found him wandering around... checked the side entrance door to the back yard, and noticed it was wide open... went through and noticed my mower was halfway to the open door, so I went to the patio and noticed that my almost new gas powered generator was gone and so were all my fishing rods & reels (around 8 of them). I asked my other neighbor if he had seen anything, he said "I saw a couple of guys in your back yard, but since I saw them working there yesterday, didn't think they were doing anything wrong"... called the cops, they took fingerprints, but were all smudged. Long story short, I got my fishing rods/reels back (they fell out of their truck), but never got my generator back. Bastards. I HATE thieves.

I'm wondering how an EMSHS blade would look in that setup...

Looking forward to seeing the final result - looks very promising.

I heard/read somewhere that the guy is getting a mandatory psych evaluation... I don't have the source for it, but will try to find and post it later. It seems to me if he had used a gun to defend himself and his wife, there wouldn't be as much (or even any) outcry from the media. Just because he used a sword, it's hot news. Disappointing and disheartening.

Okay, so I've seen a few threads on how to remove the hanwei frosting, but does anyone know how to put it back on? LOL... I've never heard anyone wanting a frosted hamon back on... I wish I could help. Hopefully, someone here knows how to go about it.

I recently purchased a custom Ronin Elite sword from danmasamori... everything was exactly as described. Great doing business with him again!

Nice! Good to see a custom piece come out almost exactly like a customer wanted it. The F/K are probably made out of zinc, as most manufacturers use that medium unless specifically asked (like you did) for copper/brass/steel. I can't tell from the above pictures or on the link you posted, but does it have a hamon?

It's almost impossible for us to see lamination lines in a photo better than you with the sword in hand. But the lamination lines will always be there even if very, very faintly. I'm speaking of folded mono-steel, damascus (mixed steel), or sanmai and others. If you wish you can enhance the lamination line(s) by etching with a mild acid. I was thinking of doing a vinegar etch, but I'll have to wait and see. When I do, I'll post updated (and hopefully better) pictures, before/after.
