just finished up this one for a great forum member. i found this black and blue micarta that really made the whole build stand out.

Diggin it!

thanks, my friend. this is the first blade i made with one of my new giant grinding wheels. nothing like digging in with a new 14" monster wheel.

Graceful lines!

thanks, the trick is not to be too aggressive with the sweep of the blade. it is very easy to give it an almost cartoonish swoopy look. it needs to flow from tip to hilt and look natural. if that makes any sense. you develop an eye for it over the years. it is like good music, you know it when you hear it.

I really like this shape!

thanks, my friend. i usually make them a bit smaller. this is a nice size, though. not too big, not too small. you can kinda tell by the size of my crazy anime blaster behind it.
