    Nakago isn't too clean? I found this blade in gunto and still wont be surprised if it isn't nihonto.

    It sold at 1.8k euro. Someone will be having headache. Many years ago I bought heavy 1080 steel "ryan sword" I payed 200$

    Yeah if it was bought in Japan why no papers? Especially in this shape. There are some diferences in mei and wonder why mei starts in nagashi after repolish. Executed not signed.

    Mr @Bruce Pennington Im posting link to auction of mantetsu here. Dunno if you dig everywhere. Its for your database. Its not my auction ofcourse https://www.ebay.com/itm/306280148929 And another one https://ebay.us/m/M23rdL

    Price isn't odd. Genuine can get this price range easily. I wonder If those experts even typing this. But thx for your opinion. This auction shows everything what is wrong there. Only omote side is on picture.

    https://www.catawiki.com/pl/l/95650532-katana-gendaito-handachi-yasunobu-334k8-showa-16-1941-tokyo-japonia Is this most apparent fake I ever saw? Koshirae is so bad that blade would have better chance to sell as bare blade. And this chinese bag. Omg. Also could sb check dates info in english? Yasunobu stopped making swords in 1945?

    Rawa replied to Stian's topic in Tosogu

    Meiji period?

    It have hitsu ana. You will never see gunto mount with kozuka/kogatana. Probably individual order for some civil defense with hitsu ana was adapted for gunto koshirae. Tsuba is made of brass?
  14. Rawa
    Not mint but not pricey either

  18. Rawa
    If not for 2 mekugi ana I would say meiji wall hanger. But please post more photos of jihada
  19. Rawa
    Its already a machete.
  20. Rawa
    In this particular case blade in my opinion looks better now then if it would be repolished with any money.

    https://www.sakuramatsuriantiquariato.com/en/valutare-una-spada-giapponese/lo-hamon-della-katana-giapponese/ More common types of hamon
  22. Rawa
    Would say yours hamon is gunome-midare [more alive] as notare would be more regular waves. Look on yours boshi [hamon on tip/kissaki]
  23. Rawa
    Waki is a blade [nagasa] 30-60 cm long. So yeah its a wakizashi.
  24. Rawa
