light and fast 3V

[Dan Keffeler]

I wanted to share a Katana that I finished last year

The blade steel is CPM 3V 28.5”
Habaki is mokume
Tsuba is titanium
Fuchi is nickel silver
Tsuka is G11
Ito is Tsunami Cord
Mekugi is titanium

I this is on of my early blades and it is verry light and fast, I had it sitting around and dicidet to make a handle for it.

thanks for looking

Dan

Very cool Dan! Did you do the mokume? What's it weigh?

 

[spIder]

NICE.
Hong long is the tsuka?

 

[Dan Keffeler]

9.5"
I would have made it longer but I use some leftover Ito and only had enogh for 9.5

thanks

Dan
