Very nice!
I see work like this and all I can do is tell myself: Someday.

sweet! I really like the blade shape, the fit and finish, and that hamon.
I would have been proud to have made that myself (assuming I could.)

I like how the hamon really pops out on the blade.
Am always a sucker for burl handles and different colored spacer combos. Looking like you have this down to an art.

Awesome work! You did good, very good. The vintage micarta spacers are a very nice touch.
