    I say the entire thing is 24 karat gold with paint over it...24k is pure gold right?
    It only weights around 95 pounds.

    Suddenly, the $400 prize money doesn’t seem too expensive at all..

    (Edit: $400 comp fee)

    Looks nice! Though I would love to see a KWC trophy that is pure wood, not painted. So many epic designs can be made using wood alone!

    I’m thinking about the tamas Kazuma made in 2015*.
    Those are a work of art!

    (*EDIT : Sorry, i actually meant 2014!)

    My bad, it’s actually the 2014 KWC edition tama.
    For some funny reason, it’s a very difficult image to find.

    But notice the multi-laminate tama in all of the images:
