Gunome Posted June 19, 2016 Report Posted June 19, 2016 Hello, I would like to hear your opinion on that "circle" in the ha. It is visible only on one side and not to the other. I Wonder if it is a crack in the ha that could turn to hakobore or if it is something different. if so, what ? Thanks Sébastien Quote
Stephen Posted June 19, 2016 Report Posted June 19, 2016 The thumb print highlights it well, well see what the experts say as if been wrong a lot of late Quote
Lance Posted June 19, 2016 Report Posted June 19, 2016 Aside from kizu could be a bit of moisture left on the blade when put into saya at some time and it left a water mark/stain. Hopefully that's all it is but you'd need to inspect it to be sure. Regards, Lance 1 Quote
SwordGuyJoe Posted June 19, 2016 Report Posted June 19, 2016 Looks more like fukure to me. Probably would chip out if the sword was used IMO. Quote
Darcy Posted June 19, 2016 Report Posted June 19, 2016 Agree with Stephen. In this condition and with this kind of thing, a few minutes or hours with uchiko is the time and place for it. Quote
