Momiji katana and tanto (Daisho set)

Another sword (or rather, set of swords) made by me. It is a set of katana and tanto, known collectively as the daisho. As the hilt and scabbard are in red, this set is named "Momiji", which is red maple in Japanese. Here is a picture of me posing with the katana in hand. The katana, with its three versions (sheathed, unsheathed, scabbard only) is on sale at Under the Boardwalk's yard sale.
Here is a picture with the daisho set at my waist.
Here, I have drawn out both the katana and the tanto (which is a dagger), dual wielding them.
This is a Japanese sword stand that I made to hold the daisho for display. It is also available for sale at Under the Boardwalk's yard sale.
