I got bored with perfecting the stuff I should and decided to play around a bit. I wanted to attempt a hamon and try a little file work. Both came out ok for my first attempt. I’m really digging the process and plan on doing a lot more of it. This one is another out of 1084 with purple heart scales. The 3.75” blade hardened up well and seems to take a real good edge. Crap lighting but you get the idea.
