My First Ninja Tanto

Another possibility is that the bohi were fine when carved, but a few bad polishes made them wavy.  I have seen this before.  If there is a region where the polish takes a dip, the bohi gets thinner there.  

    I cleaned it up a bit today during a gap in the training schedule.   The Ninja "special ops black out" was a flat black paint job.    It has what seems to be a Soshu type hamon on it,  a little more wild than mild.   I'll have to hit the books a bit when I get a chance as it has a couple interesting hataraki.

    I was taking a look at the horimono and was thinking the same thing that "maybe it's been polished a bit" to make the lines look off.  But the chap  was not Nobukuni that is for certain! :)
