Description
Finished up these Khanjars, FFXIV rouge weapons. Made of poplar, the design was burned in with a wood burning tool, covered in Rust-Oleum "weathered gray" stain, several coats of spray on lacquer, the handles are wrapped in paracord over rubber grip. This was a fun set to make and they feel really good to hold and swing around. I was kind of disappointed with the stain job this time, as the test piece I burned and stained looked much nicer, but this isn't too bad. I am glad I went with the paracord wrappings instead of just the rubber grip (which is what I normally do). The lacquer is nice and shiny, but I found some better finishing material that I will try to use on the next piece I make. I did part of the finishing at night which caused me to overspray in some areas, making a little bit of a 'drippy' look in some spots. Overall I am really happy with these, as they capture the feel and look of the in-game items.

Love these blades. They came out really nice and yes, the paracord wrappings are really fine. Handles and lanyard wraps are an art in itself. Your wraps look great !!!!!
