Dear Members,
I would like to ask you to assist me with filling in my inventory sheet based on the pics. I enjoy looking at this sword, it's just that I can't find certain answers.
Blade length: 64cm
Blade width: Machi: 0.7cm Yokote: 0.4cm
Mihaba: 3 cm
Sori: 1.6cm
Koshi-zori
Mune: Ihori (hikushi) from the mune side, it's almost rounded but it does have an "edge".
Probably where it becomes slightly more difficult are the following areas.
Kitea: ??? My idea is masame, any confirmation?
Hamon:???
Utsuri:???
Boshi: ???
When I look at other examples, it seems so easy to see, is this a way of photographing?
Kissaki: chu-kissaki
Nakago: O-suriage, mei is still visible, is it still called o-suriage?
Nakago length: 24cm
Mekugi-ana: 1
Nakago-Jiri: Kiri (ichimonji)
Yasurime: Very hard to see.
Mei: Tachi mei
Looking forward to your comments, please be gentle, still a novice.
Best, Ron G.
