Svashtar said:This is cool! Thank you Sarge for doing all the heavy lifting. I agree with Yvsa and Sarge and everyone about keeping the handles wood and the design simple.
Knowing the Kami's I would not be surprised to see one 15" long and 2 pounds capable of ramming thru a car door, but with Sarges model that has to help.
I think the biggest area for a mistake is in the scabbard. A simple sheath is the way to go, and they can follow Sarge's examples there as well.
Thanks to everyone for making this happen. I know I am in for at least one anyway.
