Mistreated Tadahiro

[Yves55]

As I promised in Japanese Nanban Tsuba, or ... ?

This is the link to the auction: http://loeckx.be/en/2022/01/25/12676-Japanese-wakizashi-sword-lotus-scroll-and-mother-of-pearl-74cm- for the moment...

The blade was covered with a thick greasy substance... I gave it a rapid clean with warm water en some soap, but it remains stained.

 

Cutting edge 53,1 cm

Total length 67,9 cm

Curvature 1,7 cm

Moto-haba 3,1 cm

 

Here is the mei: Hizen Ju Musashi Daijo Fujiwara Tadahiro.

Thank you Barry.

I suspected something like that.

Still learning every day.
