I forged this oversized rentetsu nakiri in a go-mai construction with an AU core, nickel diffusion barrier, and wrought iron that was sourced from a piece of old wagon wheel. It measures in at 200×71 and has lasery edge geometry while maintaining substance in the spine thickness. The 1/3 directly above the edge has been stone set and finished on a Shinden Suita, and an uchigumori mud was applied to the cladding to bring out the character of the wrought as well as to blend the hira and kireha.
Blade Specs:
Steel Type: Apex Ultra / Nickel / Wrought Iron
Spine: 3.9 - 2.4 - 1.5mm
HRC: ~66 HRC
Rounded spine and choil
Stone finished bevel, uchi mud finished cladding to bring out the character of the wrought iron
Overall length: 349 mm
Weight: 273
*the wrought iron has some inclusions in the hira
Handle Specs:
Wood Type: Elforyn and Stabilized Figured Maple
Profile: Slim Rokkaku Hanmaru
Buffed and Polished
Please give me a few days to prepare to ship it
