Ed Posted July 23 Report Posted July 23 MUMEI WAKIZASHI MEI: MUMEI DATE: NONE NAGASA: 47.301cm (18.625") OVERALL: 59.69cm (23.5") MIHABA: 3.02cm (1.1875") KASANE: 0.63cm (0.25") SORI: 1.27cm (0.5") NAKAGO: UBU MEKUGI ANA: ONE YASURIME: KIRI MUNE: IORI HADA: KO-ITAME HAMON: NOTARE BOSHI: KO-MARU HORIMONO OMOTE: NONE HORIMONO URA: NONE HABAKI: 1 PIECE SILVER SHIRASAYA This wakizashi has a very elegant shape overall with considerable sori for the nagasa length. The chu-kissaki adds to its overall elegance. The nakago may be slightly machi-okuri as evidenced by the hamon extending beyond the ha-machi further than I would expect. Yet, the nakago retains one mekugi ana and the nakago jiri is Kiri. There are a couple of small ware which are barely noticeable. The hada is itame with masame in the shinogi-ji. The hamon is a gentle notare in nioi with lots of hataraki such as chikei, sunagashi, nie kozure, etc. There is hakikake in the boshi. Polish is excellent. Price: $2750 plus S/H *REDUCED PRICE $2200 plus s/h, and any additional associated fees (PP, wire, etc.) 2 Quote
