  1. No matter how hard one tries, one can't make a silk purse form a sows ear. This blade is a Showa to. Yes, the sword has probably been folded, however, it's oil quenched. So no matter how you look at it, (I don't like the term, Arsenal Blade) it is what it is.
  2. The answer is the seller.
  3. Franco, if you bother to do a little research, you'll find the Yoshimune, only made Gendaito. You seem to be fixated on it not being traditional.
  4. As far as I'm aware, Takahashi Yoshimune, never made showato.
  5. I don't know if Cameron is still working. Jigoku Studios |
  6. I'm guessing the Hakikake boshi are with swords done in Soshu, whilst the Maru and Midare are done in Bizen
  7. I think you may find it depends on the style of forging.
  8. You have just opened a can of worms. According to Chris Bowen, they are not traditionally made swords. I believe they are true Nihonto and they have been known to achieve NBTHK Hozon Kaneisho.
  9. With only that photo, you'll still have trouble identifying it.
  10. You could do a lot worse.
