I had always wanted to see Nick Wheeler's work up close so when he offered up some of his rough ground
blades for sale I just had to buy one. Nick had forged and ground this blade, HT'd it for a beautiful hamon,
and done some post HT grinding. All I really had to do was spit shine it a bit and slap on a guard and handle.
In fact, I'd feel funny about putting my stamp on it so I may just keep it for eye candy.
Here are a few pics
Here it was after just a little lovin'. Nice clay work Nick.
Thanks for looking.
