Hy everybody,
I have been engraving this homemade Habaki for my Katana. I used the homemade graver holder for "puntini" dot engraving that i showed in my previous post. Total time 5h on one side and another 5h on the other. The pictures are not that clear but enough for you to get the idea about it. I will start to learn proper bulino with proper graver geomeries, but wanted to finish what i have started with just a simple needle tip graver or as some might say "stipple punch" :)
I used a lupe to engrave this. One eye starts and the other finishes ;)
Thanks for taking a look and critiques are welcomed.
Thanks to everybody that gave me a pleasant and friendly welcome to this forum (you guys rock)
