Hi everyone

I just finished this "Japan" style knife. Im not sure how to call this style .. modern wakizashi because it is pretty long or modern tanto maybe ?

Handle is Amara ebony - in reality it is somehow brighter and more brownish color than on pictures

. You can find some more WIP pics on my FB. I hope you will like it and have a nice day , Petr
