Gabriel L Posted September 24, 2013 Report Posted September 24, 2013 Hello everyone, This might be the most striking and unusual naginata I have ever seen. Katakiri-ba with some very atypical horimono. I am curious about that horimono, actually. Is it some kind of bonji? The stroke design looks astonishingly similar to modern typefaces. On that note, does anyone have a good list of bonji? I can recognize some of the absolute most common examples, but it would be nice to study the topic a little more carefully. EDIT: or know a good reference book on bonji, doesn't have to be online... Quote
