GrozaB Posted February 15, 2016 Report Posted February 15, 2016 Picked up cheap wakizashi on the gunshow yesterday. tsuka is cheap Chinese crap. Rest is looks ok. BTH, what is the symbol on habaki? I saw similar few times on tsubas... Quote
Stephen Posted February 15, 2016 Report Posted February 15, 2016 Why do you think the tsuka is Chinese knock off? Quote
GrozaB Posted February 15, 2016 Author Report Posted February 15, 2016 Because it is one of the ugliest nihonto-realated thing I saw in last few years... Quote
jason_mazzy Posted February 16, 2016 Report Posted February 16, 2016 meijei tourist crap? (the handle) Quote
Geraint Posted February 16, 2016 Report Posted February 16, 2016 I think Oleg was right first time. Refinished saya and duff tsuka but the blade itself is sound as far as I can see and the niju habaki with pierced mon is nice so if you want to rescue time for polish and shirasaya. All the best.
