Fusilier Posted May 9 Report Posted May 9 G'day, I've asked in the translation section if anyone can assist me in determining the provenance of a mumei gunto I acquired as part of a collection of 3 swords. A link to that thread is here; The patina and profile of the Nakago made me think it might not be a shin gunto. I thought that perhaps it might be older or something else. I haven't re-posted the pictures from the other thread here but I can take additional ones if that would be of help. I'd be hugely grateful for any insights anyone may have? Cheers David Quote
Tohagi Posted May 14 Report Posted May 14 Sorry David but your previous post is a mess to me... Why are the nakago blue ? Which one is yours? Hope it's not the fukure/ware one... Best regards, Eric Quote
Rawa Posted May 15 Report Posted May 15 Just add new photos. Dont make them at sunset. Fukure is one point but those chips [hakobore] could come from hagarami. Blade looks like one having plenty of kizu. Quote
