Ron M Posted January 15 Report Posted January 15 Hello to all the friends here, I was inquiring as to what to call this boshi form from a wakizashi I own, signed Masahiro. Regards to you all, and thanks in advance Quote
Scogg Posted January 15 Report Posted January 15 My guess would be: Kaen More photos may help, tough to see the kaeri 1 Quote
eternal_newbie Posted January 15 Report Posted January 15 A bit difficult to tell exactly how much nie there is in the hardened area, especially at the turnback, but I would agree with either kaen or hakikake in notare-komi. 1 Quote
Ron M Posted January 16 Author Report Posted January 16 Thank you for the replies. I don’t see any turn back. See attached newer pictures 1 Quote
eternal_newbie Posted January 16 Report Posted January 16 I'd say hakikake then, with some notare-komi (the way it swells out slightly before reaching the tip). For reference: https://markussesko.com/2015/06/10/kantei-3-hamon-boshi-3/ Quote
ROKUJURO Posted January 16 Report Posted January 16 Ron, with a dark, non-reflecting background you get a much better contrast. This will allow the experts to see more. Quote
