[QUOTE="Angcuru, post: 1302187, member: 10948"] Hey, Tetsubo, really nice work you've done here. Now I'm inspired to do a wee bit of sketching. :D I have a request: A sort of variant straight katana constructed of lightweight golden glass with a gold core(not in the center, but contained about 3/4 in from the cutting edge, within the widened, blunt edge) to add force to the strikes. The sword is wielded in sort of a duelist/fencing fashion, but unique(I suppose) in that the weilder (who is right-handed) uses his left hand to guide the path of the blade when in defensive mode. To facilitate this, I imagine the back of the sword being rounded off instead of flat, to increase the ease of the hand's movement. I imagine it being used in a sort of flowing, sudden parry followed by a swift two-handed thrust/slice/swipe wherein the left hand leaves the blade and quickly takes hold of the hilt, adding increased force to the strike. The blade itself should be plain and straight, and the hilt having no crossguard, but rather being wrapped in a very smooth, yet naturally grips the skin of the hand, (kind of like super-smooth polished leather or latex.) Have fun. ;) [/QUOTE]
