  • Recently got a lot of progress on a project. It's not done but still fun to see. I have been thrifty finding these parts mostly second hand but it is very possible to get one new. This set would be between $15k-$20k to have made new.
    Katana -
    L6 Howard Clark Katana
    Tsuba and menuki are antique
    Fuchi/Kashira made by Rado Sword
    Tanto -
    Howard Clark sanmai folded tanto
    Polished by Josiah Boomershine
    Tsuba made by Man in Black
    Fuchi/Kashira/Menuki are antique
    I will make a proper review with all the things when they are done.

    The MIB's choice of design gives off an intimating and menacing vibe to this piece. I'm looking forward to seeing the final product.

    Black, black, on blackity, black, black, with swirly mitsudomes for the win! Too bad about the extra weight…. though I must admit I cannot hide my envy for that H.C blade! Regardless, great unboxing Matt 😁👍🏽

      The more I hold it the more I like it. I don't mind a little extra when it feels right. This one does.

      @@Matthew_Jensen so it’s one of those things where you kept imagining in your head what it would feel like (weight, balance) when everything was mounted, but because it was “off” when you initially handled it, your first impression wasn’t an excited one. I’ve had that happen, and then after the next 30 mins of swinging it around the house it starts to really feel good in the hand. Plus you’re no small fry, so the little extra oomph you might have to put into a swing isn’t a bad thing. If you ever intended to cut anything with it….i.e tatami….now would be the time to get the feel of it, before the mucho
      $$$ polish gets done!

    What a beautiful sword Matthew! There was or is a legendary smith named Yoshihara. Once travelling outside japan he got a close look at a Howard Clark katana. Apparently it made a lasting impression, he could only dream to work with such materials but laws prohibit him.

    Hey Matt, do you know of a way to "quiet" a katana that rattles a little bit when in the sheath? The habaki fits nice and snug, and the sword sheathes well, but I guess the space in the saya where the blade goes is perhaps just a little bit bigger than it should, and sometimes the blade knocks against the sides.

      Are you aware you can zoom in on the screen on RUclips? I just zoomed in on my iPhone and you can see the swords perfectly. And they are gorgeous

    I think unboxing a custom piece is great content. And I'll continue to make unboxing videos because I am so slow at making better ones 🤣

    I heard Masamune was made out of L6. Also, it can cut a lightsabre.

    Kinda sad that you'll have to stop buying swords now. Never gonna top this, don't even try :)
