Finished up mirror polishing

[Knived]

I’ve been lucky enough to get this custom ordered Mizuno Tanrenjo’s 4th generation blacksmith’s wide yanagiba.
Just finished sharpening and mirror polishing, nothing but good old fashin way( manually sharpen and polishing )
Custom wa handle and saya will be next.
I’m still not sure about going for traditional style or modern.
Your opinion will be appreciated

You won’t find same hamon honyaki anymore. Last time when I talked them, it takes me more than month to haggle with them and I’ve 3 out of 5 of 4th generation’s knives they had.

That turned out great! Look forward to seeing the future progress - either traditional or modern would look spectacular.
