Puuko Time




I am ready to start on my puuko, in this picture I have my piece of Oak for my handle. The Oak is from Hilton, From the big storm of December 2012 that felled many tree around PMB. The steel I will be using is a VW golf 3 tire rod. I assumed that because it is a car part the steel would be high tensile and able to hold an edge because car parts have to with stand high amounts of tension. I'm very excited
for the forging.
