Jon Posted July 7 Report Share Posted July 7 Hi I’m trying to find someone who makes shirasaya in the U.K. I have my sword on a list for a polish ( in about two years) but need a shirasaya, any thoughts ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted July 7 Report Share Posted July 7 did you ask the polisher for recommendations? Usually the polisher has a relationship with habaki makers and shirasayashi. The polisher deals with a lot of blades that need shirasaya so it seems reasonable he has options, who has he been sending his swords too?
