  1. Thank you. I'll be sure to read it. I'd like to broaden my knowledge and this will help greatly. I appreciate it very much!
  2. Chris, I can't thank you enough for this information. I can read the majority of the Kanji on the Tang but would never have been able to deduce this (I have a lot to learn). Also thank you for the link!
  3. I am relatively familiar with the traditional process though not that of Showato. It is hard to tell from the images but after a closer inspection you can see the hada when holding the actual sword. Thank you so much for the information you have provided (an the others too of course). I cannot give enough thanks!
  4. Thank you very much for the reply. Being Showato it would have been machine made and oil quenched to achieve the 'hamon'?
  5. Hello everyone, I'm a first time poster and was wondering if anyone could assist me in the identification of a sword. In short my knowledge is relatively basic and I require some assistance. The sword in question has a Shōwa era Menuki as well as a stamp on the Tang, but I'd like to know if it is a genuine Guntō. * Edit I have now attached the images for the convenience of everyone. Please excuse my original post to those that saw it. With the suggestion I should introduce myself could someone be kind enough to send me in the direction of the new members thread as I cannot seem to locate it.
