Swordsman62 Posted March 15 Report Share Posted March 15 Another question if I may... I have a Wakizashi in my collection that has no inscriptions, carvings or symbol on the tang. Is this usual? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matsunoki Posted March 15 Report Share Posted March 15 Unsigned nakago are common for two reasons….. 1. It was never signed in the first place….very common 2. it has been shortened (at the nakago end) and Mei has been lost (also very common) Yours appears to be shortened.
