errant-artifacts Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 I was hoping to find out the name of the hamon pattern on this blade, and if anyone could translate the mei. All other help would be appreciate it. This item will be auctioned off at David Rago's Arts and Auction Center Sept. 10th or 11th. thank you in advance for your help Chris Wise Quote
Stephen Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 not sure of the mei, was thinking a person who does good forgries might like Connie's...always check your background when posting. Quote
SwordGuyJoe Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Not sure on the hamon - very interesting though. Mei looks like Kunimitsu saku (although saku looks a bit off). Quote
cabowen Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 hamon has a "kani no tsume" (crab's claws) look...Mei is quite rustic.... Quote
takakage Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 mei maybe kikumitsu saku , it is not very well made........blade seems better. Quote
loui Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 I've owned one with a similar hamon and have seen several since, here is the link: http://www.japaneseswordcollector.com/e ... chsek.html Quote
