flo06 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Posted July 17, 2015 Hi members, Just to share some pictures I did recently of a Katana of my personal collection. Hope you will like it... Thanks for your interest ! Quote
Fuuten Posted July 17, 2015 Report Posted July 17, 2015 Gorgeous! Thank you for sharing. I always enjoy such prime example smith's works. To imagine owning one yourself. Also maybe I'm asking too much, but maybe a photo with both sides mirroring? Quote
flo06 Posted July 17, 2015 Author Report Posted July 17, 2015 Thanks guys for your compliments. Fuuten, sorry but these pictures are the only ones I've done. It's true, It's not very convenient but you can see the Hamon is symmetrical on both sides on my two first pictures Quote

Jussi Ekholm Posted July 17, 2015 Report Posted July 17, 2015 Very nice sword. I tend to like long hira blades, there is just something about them. Of course the fact that it is Muramasa makes it even more amazing. I hope you don't mind the quick photoshop I did. It was done in few mins but it will show how symmetrical both sides are. Quote
flo06 Posted July 17, 2015 Author Report Posted July 17, 2015 Jussi, absolutely no problem, thank you for this quick photoshop I'm going to replace the first 2 pictures with this one. In fact it's much better ! Quote
Isocyanide Posted July 17, 2015 Report Posted July 17, 2015 You cut down an enemy before you returned it to it's saya right? Quote
flo06 Posted July 17, 2015 Author Report Posted July 17, 2015 Isocyanide, Always, this is exactly what we are supposed to do with a Muramasa... Unfortunately, I don't have many enemies so it becomes difficult these last times. Quote

Art Torano Posted July 18, 2015 Report Posted July 18, 2015 All I can say is WOW!!! That is one of the most amazing swords I have ever seen. Congrats. Art Torano Quote
Gokaden Posted July 19, 2015 Report Posted July 19, 2015 What a fine blade. I too, had hoped for a Muramasa judgement, at least I have symmetrical hamon on both sides of the blade... Quote
flo06 Posted July 19, 2015 Author Report Posted July 19, 2015 Hi Frederick, Fine blade too... I feel a little irony in your answer (?) but whatever Yeah your blade has a good symmetric Hamon but not the good Nakago Jiri and probably too much Nie (if my eyes don't deceive me) for a Muramasa. Art Torano, thank you for your compliment Quote
