This is my first sword ever! The Combat knife Katana with African Blackwood was so much fun to build! I did learn a lot building my first sword well actually a large combat knife. Combat knife making is an addiction of mine! This combat knife was so large I needed a larger tank for heat treating and hand sanding the knife was a long process. If you build a combat knife this long make sure it will fit in the oven for the temper cycle! I hope you enjoyed the film! Please subscribe and come back for more.
