Michaelr Posted February 11, 2020 Report Posted February 11, 2020 Hello everyone and thank you in advance for any help. I traded some unwanted stuff for this Wakizashi over the weekend. The blade has had a hard life but I love the mounts and the leather cover is in excellent condition. I had a very hard time getting the Hamon to show but I did the best that I could. If someone can also help me with the smith that would be great too. If it would need to be posted in the translation section I can do that also. Thank you. MikeR 2 Quote
Geraint Posted February 12, 2020 Report Posted February 12, 2020 Dear Mike. Nice find! The blade is in much better condition than many that appear here and the nakago is in good condition. A militarised civilian wakizashi, as I am sure you know. It has possibly had a rewrap as the ito folds are all in one direction rather than alternating, no harm. I would be tempted to get that other seppa foiled and leave it as is. Enjoy! All the best. Quote
