Jamie Posted September 9, 2010 Report Posted September 9, 2010 I am wondering if anyone might be able to post an example-a Picture of a Suishinshi School Ken Tanto. The reason I'm asking is - I sent a Ken to SF Shinsa. I have just recently received it back, and it was pinkslipped and attributed to Suishinsi school. So I am curious to see another example to compare mine against. Thanks In advance. Jamie Quote
cabowen Posted September 9, 2010 Report Posted September 9, 2010 The Suishinshi school is the largest in Shinshinto with many dozens of smiths. Without a more specific attribution, it will be quite difficult to make any meaningful comparisons. Quote
Toryu2020 Posted September 10, 2010 Report Posted September 10, 2010 Jamie - Alternately, you might post photos of the sword and perhaps we can help you understand the findings of the shinsa team. This is where real study begins - use all of your resources to see if you can confirm their findings and if not use them to confirm other hypotheses. In the end greater understanding of swords is the goal and you have a terrific opportunity for learning. -t Quote
