Ken-Hawaii Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 Matt, it would make sense for you to post which papers the blade has. NBTHK, NTHK, Hozon, TH, or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGermanBastard Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 NTHK as can be seen in the images Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baka Gaijin Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 I think image 5 reads Kan Tei Sho, I am confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geraint Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 Dear Malcolm. You are right of course but why puzzled? Standard NTHK kanteisho envelopes as far as I can see. Or have I missed something, which is quite likely. All the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGermanBastard Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 This is a nice length Daito. Do the papers state the generation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baka Gaijin Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 Thank you Geraint, I have only seen NBTHK, so did not know how it was designated NTHK; but then, I am very easily confused.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
