Lareon Posted May 6 Report Posted May 6 The nicks in the nakago are usually added on purpose. I believe the general consensus is that it was to match up blades with fittings. Quote
Rawa Posted May 7 Author Report Posted May 7 Nakago should be so short? Also patina looks older then ww2 Quote
Rawa Posted May 7 Author Report Posted May 7 Seller states that blade was made in 1942 in factory. Jihada photo. Could this blade came from local buyout? Quote
PNSSHOGUN Posted May 7 Report Posted May 7 This is clearly an older blade, certainly not made in 1942. From the shape of the Nakago perhaps Sue Bizen. It's a good idea to learn how to identify if a sword is old or new before charging headlong into a purchase. 1 Quote
Rawa Posted May 7 Author Report Posted May 7 Price on fleebay is 5500 $AU. High enough to check before purchase. Quote
