Gerry Posted February 23 Report Posted February 23 I've always seen that good blades are usually accompanied with nice habaki, and not usually the other way around, so I put good value in nice custom habaki. Most of my swords have the standard cat-scratch textured habaki, but I thought I'd share a few with more unique designs. I particularly like this one with the dragon detail. And this one on the left is just a massive regular habaki, compared to a similar one next to it on a 26.5" kai gunto. 4 1 1 Quote
Gerry Posted February 23 Author Report Posted February 23 The mantis is such a recurring motif in tosogu. Quote
Steves87 Posted February 23 Report Posted February 23 Thanks for sharing, they are unique! Maybe also share them to the Habaki thread Quote
Gerry Posted February 24 Author Report Posted February 24 Oh, I didn't realize that there was a habaki thread, and I'll make sure to post it there too. 1 Quote
