First- the work you've done on the blade and fittings====== Speachless
The theme came together perfectly!!
Second- The video is OUT STANDING!!! the moon shots, the black and white shots, the music, the amount of time spent on individual parts wasn't , excessive, by that i mean, some whould hold for too long on say the tusba, and i'd get bored and shut er down, You opn the other hand kept my attention, and i fully wanted to see the next portion of your vid
I GIVE YOU NOW A VERY WELL DESERVED GOOSEMAN REP!!!!!!

Awesome video.

I'm speechless. Wow!

[Firehand10k]

Excellent work on both. I love that wrap. Wanna get one done like that now that I've seen yours.
Also like the other full moon thrown in at 32 seconds. Is that just to see who's paying attention?

Great job.

[Caliper]

Thanks everyone, I'm happy you all like the video, I spend all day taking the proper pictures, video and editing everything by the time I was done I was sick of the song, hahaha >:)

I just spend so much time on this katana that I had to do something different for it

Takatom, if you need any tips about polishing just let me know
So, Blade Master, what did you do to Mako that he likes the Moon theme??
:machinegun:

Thanks Firehand10k, I love the wrap too, when I saw that wrap I just had to do it, it's unique, I'm not even sure if it's katatemaki or does it have another name

hahaha! yes the shot at 0:32 is my favorite too, I was hoping someone would catch up on it faster, good eyes :king::king::king::king::detective:

[the blade master]

wot me well i never did:blackeye:

[Caliper]

haha, I see, you're the type that throws the rock but hides the hand =))
just kidding mate:ohyeah:

Hey dagooseman, glad you like, if it impresses someone who owns so much nihontos, it means I'm doing something right, thanks buddy :king:

[andysoard]

Hope no one tries to steal it:blackeye:

[bobO]

Outstanding! Top to bottom.

[Caliper]

Thanks :king:
was a great project to do and learned a lot from it

I'm making my house Blade Master proof so he doesn't sneak in like he does with Goose's nihonto collection!!=))

[Caliper]

I feel I've improved, so this baby been getting updated with better polish, menuki and wrap
