Here is a set of Petty Sujihiki that I've just finished up. I used a lot of maple for the handles so that I could get the balance I wanted with such a thin light blade.

I've started grinding my primary bevel down to .003 prior to sharpening so these bad boys take an awesome edge

I'll have em on the way to Mark at CKTG soon
