Back from polish

Recommended Posts

I bought some years ago a bundle of 2 tanto and 1 wakizashi in very bad condition.

 

The tanto and the wakizashi is gone.

 

I sent the last tanto to polish and got it back. I'm pleased what i got back.  :)

Hello Mark,

sadly the blade was sanded or something so the hada is only slightly under good light visible. The blade itself is not to thin rubbed but the hada had lost much and the polisher had a good eye not to go deeper. But overall i think it is now in a condition to hold it further. 

 

This is a good example keeping swords as you found it and not trying anything on the blade. 

 

Before pictures.
