Info on Japanese pair of swords


Recommended Posts

Dear Charles.

 

Not Satsuma rebellion/okashi-to, have a look here for a reference for those, these are an attempt to rebind in the west without knowing what they should look like.

 

 

Olvia, welcome to NMB!  Could we have some more photographs of the bare blades of both swords, and of course any more of te fittings.  Can we also have some sizes, specifically from the tip to the notch on the bacl of the blade where the habaki sits?  As Stehen has suggested the larger sword has the look of a kinno-to or royalist sword from the Shinshinto period, 19th centruy.

 

Looking forward to some more pictures.

 

All the best.
