DirkO Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 I came across this on eBay and would think it to be gimei (and not just because it's a Norimitsu on Ebay). The mei doesn't match several shoshin mei I could find and it's located at the wrong place. Besides that, although the pics aren't really high res, I think I can't see the same level of workmanship I can see in the shoshin blades. For me this is just a lesson, so any comment is appreciated :-) http://www7b.biglobe.ne.jp/~mugen_ed/EE48.html PS : This is just my own opinion ! I don't mean to offend anyone with it, not the seller, not the potential buyer nor someone's cat called Fluffy !!! For me it's educational! Quote
Surfson Posted January 23, 2009 Report Posted January 23, 2009 Just an observation, but the age of the mei doesn't seem to match the age of the nakago. Quote
Jacques Posted January 23, 2009 Report Posted January 23, 2009 Hi, The mei doesn't match several shoshin mei I could find and it's located at the wrong place why do you say that the mei is located at a wrong place? Quote
