Iwasaki Tamahagene restore

I did this one for one of my good costumers :)
Usually with that wear i will take it on grinder but it is Iwasaki Tamahagene very nice and Rare peace i did it with sandpaper, long and time-consuming proces but i think it was worth it :D
First i had to deal with overground hell part and make bevel more even.

Many Kamisori users misundestand how to sharpening Kamisoris and do very little honing on ura side and a lot on front side, it will result in a lot of wear on front side.
I recommend to hone it approx.. 10 strokes on front side and 5 on back so 2:1

So here is results, only with some sandpapers and hones :)
