Sanrenmu Land 910+ carbon fiber

Perfect balance...



...at 96 grams (instead of 135g)






 






Interior





After a while I've sanded off the top layer to get a thinner handle with the more traditional pattern.

I've ordered another 9104  to install the scale and maybe the clip, pics will follow soon.

Y - START LK5013D coppered blade rosewood handle


stock photo


After etching with ferric chloride which was used to etch copper before the dark areas were plated with copper




I didn't axpect that and even after polishing the copper seems to be very stable






Maybe after a while it will turn dark but for the moment it's looking very interesting eveb though it's a way more subtle effect than the usual black and white damascus pattern




 How about rosewood scales? Or better Tartan Micarta?

Rosewood it was...
