PNSSHOGUN Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 Looks very well made, gendaito IMO. 1 Quote
Bruce Pennington Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 Very interesting indeed! The backside of the ana and frontside don't even look like they come from the same gunto! At first, I thought the blade may have been made with another tsuka, and then refitted for the kaigunto, and the ana was just a tad bit off, so the backside was angled and filled. But the front side of the hole is perfect. Hmmm. And WHAT a kamon!!! Or is it an Imperial Household emblem? Quote
