Mawashiuke

Hi.

Thanks.

Hi sorry. I am putting back the photos. Koshirae mountings, by Mitsutaka. Someone in Japan said that this piece was made by a high-ranking craftsman, Meiji period and I should keep this well. The signatures can't be confirmed. As expected of course, everything is a question mark, unless proven to be right. Mounting a blade would be good since this is 100 years old already. Tnx

I would assume that best for this one. Thanks.

I practice Goju Kai Karate, then Shotokan and Filipino Martial Arts

I can't find a reference but an old vintage 70's blade with the same mark and nothing else. Well it's sharp. Thanks Dan.

Thanks for the input. Mawashi uke, mawashi geri, I love everything that is round and pointed.

Thank you everyone for your help.

Thank you Mr. Chris. Yes it's old and though there are so many out there, few are Special made Harukichi.

Do you have any comment for the knife?

I need to find the woman version perhaps. . The hairy version would be much pleasing.

Yes the mask.

Hi. A noh must be scary. . The knife is not scary though but lost in the virtual searches.

Good day everyone. It's hard to find a reference for this knife maker. My searches resulted to Harukichi Saji father of Takeshi Saji? Any generous comment is very much appreciated. Thanks Mawashi

Thanks Tetsugendo, I added more photos.
