Great session! I find the cardboard is tricky for upward cuts because it doesnt want to stay on the peg. Angles of cuts looked more accurate than the target was showing. When it moves slightly midcut, that changes the line. Also that double lol! Nice
That first one kind of smushed funny when I spiked it, so it was all over the place. Unfortunately it's hard to fix that unless you do a horizontal cut and flip it over. Might be the way to go next time.
@@Jaedeok82 i gotta get on that wrapping paper thing, too. Yuki arrived all bent and misaligned. Currently reworking from the tang up. F Munetoshi come on, this sword has been in production for over a decade, lets get it together now!
@@KF1 I'm guessing from the pricing that someone stumbled on a bunch of cosmetic seconds theyre offloading. The Dragon King swords on Amazon at low prices are also likely blemished seconds from reviews I've seen. Small details missing or a saya not fitting well etc. Misaligned is rough as hell though. I hope you get it sorted. I'm probably going to grab one in a couple weeks here and roll the dice on it. Idk now. I could grab a cosmetic second Musha Shobu for about that price point too.
@@Jaedeok82 Dunno where else to look for a Samgakdo. RVA lists it as a Jingum but its clearly not, no shinogi. Still worth pursuing as a fixer upper. Writing to John and will seem what happens. Kissaki is way off straight, even after fixing the tang with the side-angled spine. Bend in the blade is full atrocious
@@KF1 Thats really the problem with Korean swords. MAS offers a samgakdo for about 1800. Otherwise youre looking at a Korean Import from dogum.kr or sword100.com etc. The latter of which are well made jingeom but expensive, and the prior you have very little idea what you're going to end up with and no returns or refunds. The Yuki seems like the best bet for being a known quality on a budget, even if the fittings arent Korean. As for the name, 진검 just means True Sword or that it has a sharpened edge. Samgakdo (triangle sword) and Yukgakdo (hexagon sword) are the terms that are more specific to what geometry youre looking at, so it is a jingeom, but it's also a Samgakdo.

Nice angel cuts,great session.
Thank you sir!
Great job!, awesome angles!, great form!,…..the skinny noodles can be difficult, well done!,…Just subbed⚔️😃⚔️
Thanks for watching. Was my first time doing noodles. Really showed how much work the horizontals need.
Really good angles and cuts here brother The double was awesome
Thanks for the encouragement. I'm going to try doing a few of the challenges like your wrapping paper challenge for giggles here soon. Sounds fun.
