You mention that yours is mono-steel. Are you sure? Mine has Tibetan style hairpin folding, and it seems as though yours might as well.

Hi Josh,
The sword had been polished, with little patina, so I etched it. It is forged, differentially hardened monosteel. I was hoping for hairpin, but it's still a nice piece.
Dennee,
thanks so much for your earlier thread on these swords.
