The works of Gassan Sadakazu


Recommended Posts

Here are another couple of examples of Sadakatsu boshi. The top one is a Bizen den blade dated Taisho 10 and the bottom is a Soshu den blade dated Showa 13.

Cheers,

Bryce

G'day Guys,

Here are some shots of a Gassan Sadakazu tanto dated 1867, which is very similar to the 1863 dated Sadayoshi tanto I posted earlier. It has very similar masame hada with the grain completely folded around on itself in the boshi, just like in the Sadayoshi signed example.

 

Does anyone know the term for this? 

 

Cheers,

Bryce
