francois2605 Posted October 14, 2021 Report Posted October 14, 2021 Yes, this page provides some information about such cutting tests. Out of curiosity, can you please provide pictures of the sword itself ? Quote
10thRoyal Posted October 19, 2021 Report Posted October 19, 2021 I was hoping this blade was going to show up on here at some point, hahaha. @BreizhSamourai I hope you post more updates as you learn more about it. Might turn into something beautiful. Quote
