How about naked Wolverine.

Great picture of him JB.

Problem is, the baby Samurai swords would have all their cutting edge along the top, meaning all his slashes would have to be backhanded -- which they're not.

I always interpreted it as all three edges (top, angled front end/tip, bottom) of each claw being sharp, but you make a valid point.

Ari: JB, what made you opt for this costume?  Do you prefer this one over the other?

Ari, JB already answered in this previous post on the first page:

JB: Bit of "Behind the Scenes":

Something with which I seem always to have to struggle is that tiny little anatomical point where the collar bones connect with the top of the shoulder. I sat down to lay out this figure this morning, and for some reason those two small areas clicked just perfectly, first pass. Then I thought "Wait a second -- which costume did the guy want?" I checked the email from Jim and. . . .

Well, JB designed the brown costume, so I'd say there's no assumptions there...

Very nice, I think this may be for me. It is similar to what I asked for. I haven't heard from Jim yet. Thanks in any case JB, this would match up nice with the Dark Phoenix.

Take care

Neato!  Great job, JB.

What did you ask for?  Because (and don't tell a soul) I'm in for a Wolverine piece too, and it fits my description to a tee. I asked for a leaping/almost flying Wolverine with arms out and claws extended, and also requested that he be tattered, which he clearly is here.
