Ken-Hawaii Posted April 8, 2020 Report Posted April 8, 2020 See what you can accomplish when you can't leave the house? Good job! 1 Quote
0331_usmc Posted April 10, 2020 Author Report Posted April 10, 2020 I have to say that little habaki was hard to make. It is very small. Now it's on to restoring some Japanese kitchen knives. I'll post those when done. Both will get a saya, polished and handles. I had some training for work today, but off again now so finding things to keep busy. 1 Quote
Stephen Posted April 10, 2020 Report Posted April 10, 2020 Job well done Marine. My ten thumbs could never make anything so petite. Quote

0331_usmc Posted April 11, 2020 Author Report Posted April 11, 2020 Its poplar wood and I waxed with ibota which gave it a nice finish. Quote
SAS Posted April 12, 2020 Report Posted April 12, 2020 I have been using poplar for shirasaya myself; it seems to do the job. Quote
