Thanks for the replies, I intend to post some photos and a short description as soon as I have the time during daylight hours ( I simply cannot get decent photos in the lighting of my shop ). This forum has been a great help and source of information. Thanks again, R. Wade

Hello, I recently bought my first Nihonto ( a vet bringback mumei Wakizashi ) and have been studying both it and as many sources of information as I can find in hopes of making an informed guess at it's age/ origin. During such study I came across a similar blade ( for sale ) with the exact same Habaki as my blade. How rare is this? Should it have any bearing on my thoughts about my blade?. Any opinions are appreciated. Thanks, R. Wade
