Daishō commission! The katana is named Väntan (”Wait”), and the smaller wakizashi is named Förväntan (“Expectation”).
This was my first attempt at Japanese swords and also my first actual sword commission. It came with a lot of challenges, but it was great fun! Especially the tsubas took time to figure out. They are so different from the hand guards I’m used to making for my medieval swords.
