Hellfar... I even have a 17th century Family katana:
To be honest, though: I only use this one for beheadings. And even then, it must be a special holiday or sumpin.
BTW: Didja notice that beautiful turned wooden vase on the right? It is bare wood: I polished it until it was smooth as glass.
It required TWO separate pieces (think about it -- how the helll did Unca hollow that fargin thing out????)
Awright -- While I am at it, here is another "impossible" wood-turned bowl:
Again, bare wood polished to glass. Including the inside But how did the paper-thin top layer get cut?? Hm? <-- This, I ain't tellin'. (It's my own invention.) Hand tools only.
Dirty Sekrit: Like some of the sooper growers here, I have
never ever sold a bowl I made. I have always gifted them. I am not smart enuf to grow weed, but I can do woodshit.
