Hmmm..... there are some flaws and some pitting in the kisaki area. Otherwise, rather long waki with apparently darker steel surface. Yasurime, hada and boshi indistinguishable. Hamon, partly midare based sugu-ha mixed with..?.., maybe nioi-deki Shape leads me to koto / late muromachi. Hehe....seems to be a game of dice without further informations :? I`m sure there are more knowledgeable people around here...............hey folks come on, brainstorming :lol: Uwe

Hi Shinigami117S.....? Quite difficult to tell you anything with substance based on the pics. The nakago looks very odd to me, obviously dilettantish modified Some close up from kissaki and mune would be good........ Uwe

Agree with Gabriel. The swords are lit very well.........with one or two exceptions. Unfortunately, it`s strictly not allowed to take any pics Uwe -

Hi Ray, just back from NY ( visited the exhibition two times ) "The Hasebe" was on display.....3rd room if I remember well Uwe -
Hada of the blade in question looks a bit like my Mino Kanefusa Uwe
-
Maybe, Fujiwara Shigeyuki. I wonder why so much Yuki`s around Uwe
-
We (my wife and me) will be there too, next week :D Uwe

Hi Folks, I probably will be there last week in October, in spite of my fear of flying Uwe -
I`m afraid it`s only the beginning .......... However, ebay.de did the first step years ago Uwe
-
definitely too much, in my opinion ......compared with the wide of the hamon. You have to consider, that not a few yamato blades showing originally hoso-suguha ( like my sue tegai nagamaki naoshi, or my recently bought kongoboje katana) Anyhow, an interesting topic Uwe
-
Hi Veli, if your sword really have motokasane of 0,6mm, then its obviously polished a good many times :lol: Seriously, it`s not so easy to find out how much wide (mihaba) a blade have lost over times. Usually you had to look at the mune and compare the thickness of nakago with the thickness of the blade, then you can make an appraisal of the situation. Unfortunately,this says nothing about changes of mihaba Uwe

Hi Folks, I`m watching Tsuruta san`s site a couple of years. Meanwhile it seems to me , that many of his "lower priced" blades have an mediocre to bad polish. Especially kissaki area looks mostly vague! Otherwise I`m with Carlo Uwe PS: Mark, look on Moses site occasionally
-
Hmmm.... obviously machi okuri and probably shortened also! My belly told me Nambokucho, but I don`t trust him, because it looks to healthy :? Uwe
-
Hi folks, considering the blackish jigane (not really sure, because of the whitish Mino hada developed later ) and the obviously missing togari, let me eliminate the Mino backround. Soshu (Naotsuna?) or Yamato Taima would worth a bet My two cents...... Uwe
-
I`m curious of what comes out...... Uwe
-
Ok, sounds logical. But such a thing once to be supposed on koto blades, don`t you think? For the "Kunikane" .....NFI....., never seen a blade from this den. I myself go for Hosho, although the Tegai idea is not bad at all, considering the Nioiguchi. On the other hand....Sue Tegai.....shouldn't we see slight Kaeri All in all, not so easy as I thought at first Uwe

Hi Thomas, nice to "see" you here, as well as in the "Budoforum" What leads you to this assumption Cheers Uwe
-
Hi Jean, indeed, fine swords on AOI recently. In that case, I go for YH as well. Cheers Uwe

Hi Piers, Oh yes....we keep the tape, it`s supposed against deep flying birds...... Well, seriously Speyer is located about 90 km south of Frankfurt am Main. So should be no problem for you, to reach it from Japan over the weekend :lol: Thanks Uwe -
Pictures on an Exhibition....

Hi Eric, unfortunately nothing in terms of an exhibition-catalog, but an book about Samurai showing and describing some displayed items. Greetings Uwe PS: The "old man" is Klaus, a friend of mine -
Hi, here are some pics from preparations of the forthcoming exhibition in Speyer...... The "old man" with the withe beard is not me :lol: Cheers Uwe
-
Hi Martin and Jacques, please wait with an inquiry to Zenon, till he finished my Tanto`s. Uwe PS: Right, one of the Best
-
Hmmm...... than we should contemplate Miura Daimyo at Sagami. Because of "Maru ni mitsubiki" Good luck Uwe
-
Hi folks, I think it`s important to know, if the strokes are horizontal or vertical :? It's a completely different ball game. Cheers Uwe

Hi Rich, glad to hear, that you be on the mend I hope you get well soon...and take care Greetings from Germany Uwe
