O-Midare Posted March 8, 2019 Report Posted March 8, 2019 Looks fake to me, but I'm no expert on these. But the tsukamaki looks to be done wrong, it doesn't alternate. Can't really see the blade. Quote
Geraint Posted March 8, 2019 Report Posted March 8, 2019 Yep! Fake. Number on the habaki, rough tsuba and menuki etc, etc. All the best. 1 Quote
Logan09 Posted March 8, 2019 Author Report Posted March 8, 2019 I figured as much. I noticed the habakai, poor fittings, and the Ito was wrapped wrong. I politely told the seller when he first listed it yesterday. No reply of course, and I think he even added more to the description. 1 Quote
