Welcome to a new knifemaking challenge with a samurai theme! For this one, I've chosen to make two kama, traditional Japanese farming tools that also doubled as weapons.
Given the limited time I had to work on them, my design is simple and straightforward. However, I'm pleased with the final results. I find the charred wood aesthetic fascinating, and the mirror finish on the blades is satisfying.

  • Great build, Gader! These were so cleanly done and look sooo lethal! I gotta think Phil's sodegarami would be your toughest opposition. 😜. Thanks for participating!

But other than that awesome job 😁👍

  • Those are a very impressive looking sickles, however, those wooden pegs holding the blades in place terrify me! Color ne biassed,, but I would have preferred to see the blade couplings with a socketed metal cap to give them additional strength, and double metal pins rather than wooden ones since they're less likely to shear off at the worst possible moment!
