Fake or Treasure?


ShuShinKan

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I have a new nut to work on.....

 

Primary my question is if somebody has any idea about the kanji on the saya, but before you dive into your books, please make up your mind if this is fake or treasure?

I think it is beautiful.

 

No, not for sale.

No better fotos on the moment,

no, not my sword.

 

To save some bandwidth and disk space to the forum, i put the pictures on a swedish server.

Have fun!

..that's certainly not an amateur horimono or one done to cover a flaw, ...
The Kenmakiryû looks looks o.k., and probably contemporary to the blade, but I'm not so sure about the lotus Horimono. Looks like a later addition to me, and kind of odd. I have never seen something like it (which of course doesn't mean they aren't out there), and I don't find the design convincing in an artistic sense.

Just my 2 Renminbi.
