huntershooter Posted May 28, 2010 Report Posted May 28, 2010 Here's a mumei Kyu Gunto which I would appreciate help with. My guess is this is a Meiji era blade. Any conjecture on age/school etc. is welcome. nagasa: 26.75" 67.9cm sori: .46" 11.7mm moto haba: 1.08" 27.4mm saki haba: .7" 18mm moto gasane: .24" 6mm saki gasane: .2" 5.4mm The blade is slender, almost "dainty". Hamon is wide suguba based choji/gunome with ashi, nioi guchi. Hada is tightly forged, nearly muji. Thank you. Quote
