    Hi Ken, I`m afraid I`m with Lance. Almost sure that it isn`t an Ezo-koshirae The name Ezo-koshirae arisen in the Meji-period and means northern (emishi) mounting. Mostly elaborately decorated with typical carvings of the northern natives. Regards Uwe

    Hi Pontus, I think the "Muneshige" is worth more attention and surely restorable. For the tanto, more pics are necessary Uwe

    Hi Luc, Very similar indeed. Agreeing with you about the age. On the other hand, the Phoenix could be added later Ed's do looks a bit kaga, don't you think? Cheers Uwe

    At first, do not clean the nakago with anything abrasive! However, nakago confirms my feeling. Very late Edo to more likely Meiji Tanto. I've a similar piece. Regards Uwe

    Hi Felix Looks like a late piece. Maybe Meiji. More and closer pics would be better. Uwe

    Hamon Type?

    uwe replied to Dick Tait's topic in Nihonto

    More Bizen I think. Touch of "crab claw" and the nakago looks bizen'ish (IMHO) :| Cheers Uwe

    Hi Matt, it`s called "denchú-sashi-koshirae" what means, "wear inside palace" . Hence the kojiri is a "denchú-kojiri". Cheers Uwe
