The Wally saya, is special to those who deserve it. When performing
good sayabicki this saya is one of the best and most comfortable and
Wally is a true craftsman. This saya is the "cats meow "of Japanese
sword saya. Wally has also taken the E-katana (cutter series)
(designed by Bob Elder Sensei of Toyama Batto Jutsu) saya and
thinned down the outside for comfort and safety (see "Bob proof"
saya) when doing proper nituske and he can leave the finish as is or
put one of his custom finishes on the saya. Price depends.
