Ken-Hawaii Posted August 12, 2013 Report Posted August 12, 2013 Robert, you really need to get your photos in focus. It's really hard to tell anything about the blade with the reflections & fuzziness. Ken Quote
Marius Posted August 12, 2013 Report Posted August 12, 2013 It is shinshinto at best, or later. That's what the sugata tells me. Other than that, I cannot help, as your pictures are of inadequate quality. Also, when posting more pics, please forego the koshirae, as it won't tell anybody anything about the blade. You can post the mounting separately in another section of this forum. Quote
boydie4207 Posted August 12, 2013 Author Report Posted August 12, 2013 Many thank's for the information guy's I will get a better camera for the pic's of the blade and thank's for the heads up on the koshirae I.am pretty new to the forum so any help I receive can only help my learning and understanding of the Japanese sword Quote
remzy Posted August 12, 2013 Report Posted August 12, 2013 Hello, if you have access to a scanner, you can scan the blade as well. Quote
