Here is a pic of my first 2 completed swords. First is a Katana and the second is a ninja.
Hahahahaha
I made these over 15 years ago. I think I was about 14 or 15 years old. I told my wife that this blade fettish was nothing new. Now she believes me. At least my work has improved
.
The katana is about 4 feet long and is made of galvanized steel used in joining lengths of chainlink fence. Cold forged (beat into submission) and sharpened. The handle core is a pipe welded to the blade. The guard was welded on as well. The handle was wraped in black vinyl and coper wire along with a cotton string wrap on the end that was treated with boat resin to stiffin it up.
The second one is an alumnium blade and guard with a wood core handle wraped in leather string. It is about 3 feet long.
My dad had these in his garage so I brought them home to give you guys a laugh.
