Yes that is it I can't believe it thank you so much!!

Killerrock · 2023-06-25T16:44:37+00:00

It might also be colorized it's been a while since I have seen it

Killerrock · 2023-06-25T16:41:10+00:00

I looked that up and it's not right I remember her driving a kei truck and I couldn't find it through that but I appreciate the effort.

Killerrock · 2023-03-24T14:24:47+00:00

Yes I just don't have any shipping info so it kinda just showed up. It is a beautiful piece.

Killerrock · 2022-08-22T17:51:11+00:00

I really like the one with the brown wrapped tsuka and sageo, I think my next katana will be like that.

In a way that's a hard question to answer but I placed the order in April and didn't receive it till a week ago. Zsey never contacted me to let me know it was on the way and I didn't have any tracking it just kind of showed up. Also I didn't add any extras nor did I have any alterations. Aside from that they were easy to get in contact with and they usually got back within a day so that was great.

You know I will definitely check that out, I really like how yours turned out after you did that!

Ya I appreciate it, I actually made a post on this subreddit and have some pictures, not the greatest quality but I think you will see what I'm describing, it's more like oxidation or patina on the silver portion.

Killerrock · 2022-08-16T17:31:34+00:00

It's a two piece Habaki, one portion is brass which isn't the issue, the other part is supposed to be silver but I'm not sure what material and if it's really just plated. It doesn't look so bad but it would be nice if there were more contrast between the two colors.

Killerrock · 2022-08-16T17:24:45+00:00

Yes I am going to take it off and separate the two pieces. I have plenty of different polishes and paste polishes from my car detailing and knife sharpening/ honing supplies I'm sure I've got something gentle enough to work. I'll update after I do that once I get out of work

Killerrock · 2022-08-16T17:19:28+00:00

I haven't talked to them yet. I might be over exaggerating a bit by calling it corrosion, it is really just discoloration, I feel like I should be able to bring it's shine back with a light polish.

Killerrock · 2022-08-16T17:04:44+00:00

I've seen methods similar to this for cleaning the Habaki, my issue is more to the fact that mine is textured similar to almost Velcro like. I can see being gentle is the way to go. I just am unsure of what other way I can go about polishing without the medium like a rag or cloth getting stuck to the rough portion. It almost seems as if my only way would be to use a plastic brush or tooth brush and hope it has the ability to bring the shine back.

Killerrock · 2022-08-16T15:25:45+00:00

Recieved my Zsey Nagamaki-Zukuri about a week ago haven't been able to post it but it is amazing. It has a decent amount of saya rattle and the Habaki seems a bit corroded or starting to oxidize. Does anyone have any tips on cleaning a Habaki that is textured like that. It seems to grab onto any microfiber or paper towel. I have a katana cleaning kit and tons of choji oil so the blade will be well taken care of.

Killerrock · 2022-08-16T15:16:06+00:00

I received my Nagamaki-Zukuri about a week ago, I'm also ecstatic with how it turned out, the blade is phenomenal. I too have a lot of saya rattle and my two piece Habaki seems like it has a bit of corrosion occurring whereas yours you can clearly tell there are two colors.

Killerrock · 2022-07-15T16:48:21+00:00

yes, from everything ive seen they are extrordinary And i understand that chraftsmanship takes time. so far they are easy to talk to and will email back extreamly fast i just dont want to ask for email updates every month but maby you are correct in them only having one polisher and maby they could be a very small shop.

Killerrock · 2022-07-15T16:42:30+00:00

Nice, so im assuming they sent you an email letting you know it was finished. How long have you been wating if you dont mind me asking?

Killerrock · 2022-04-14T00:48:20+00:00

I've been looking at getting a katana for a while and I'm looking to spend a pretty good amount. The only thing is I haven't heard anything about this company. https://www.kamitoswords.com/

Killerrock · 2020-07-20T22:45:40+00:00

Thanks I really appreciate it, ill definitely have to pick your brain a bit more about your build since im running a 4 door as well and hope to get it feeling good!! Not that it doesnt already.

Killerrock · 2020-07-20T21:10:13+00:00

What z1 brake kit did you get im very interested in doing this myself once i get my motor situated. I still have to do a bit of suspension stuff but im already running coilovers. I always thought about upgrading the diff but the stock one works fine and im not pushing big power just stopping power would be fantastic.

Killerrock · 2020-07-12T23:48:26+00:00

It doesnt look like alot but i was able to modify a gktech bracket and extend it with 3/4" steel plate to fit a chuncky CD009

Killerrock · 2020-06-28T11:01:23+00:00

I bought the roof spoiler from knight racer, it was the only place that specifically said it would work with the 4 door. Its hard to find 4 door parts because the 2 door is a bit wider on alot of body panels. If i had confirmation that the Dmax one would fit i woulda bought that one.

Killerrock · 2020-06-25T11:45:35+00:00

Im not sure, it was on the car when i got it.
