As I understand it they get fingures chopped off whenever they stuff up. As for the look of the pic. Its very good. I like the laquered look of the blades sheath and handle.
4go10soul:
May be there is not enough of specular.
Gabio:
The light and the pink red color were chosen to give the dramatic atmosphere. May be it’s not so good.
Morbid:
The Yakuzas say to be themselves the last Samourais.
The Samourais themselves done Hara-kiri in case of disgrace.
The Yakuzas, them, cut themselves the small finger (in fact, 2 phalanges of any finger) that they offer to those that they one offended.
If the offenses accept the gift, the honor of the Yakuza is restored, otherwise, it must die.
Lived:
Not so far and thank you.
The Kiwi:
It’s not the thumb but the little finger. May be it’s why you believe that it is too small.
Start on the right of the abdomen, go to the left, and go up to the heart, after that, you need a friend that cut out your head before you die (sorry for the details, it’s the ritual :< )
