What kind of jihada?

[Viper6924]

Yes Adam, thats the page. There are serveral others with more info to. But no one thats very helpful in this case.

 

Ted, I´m happy you seems to agree with me on the hada These Jumyu-smith seems to have mixed it up over the years.

 

I have seen a bunch Jumyu-blades on the internet. Katanas, wakis and tantos and no one comes close at having this kind of hada.

 

I have learned one thing since joining this forum;

Doesn´t matter if we talking about old katanas with orikaeshi-mei, sunnobi-tantos/waki or Jumyu-tantos with wild hada thats looks like big old pine trees from northern quebec the road for knowledge regarding nihontos is both long and hard. Best not travelled alone...

And thats the nihonto-poetry for the day!!!

Hi,

 

Ted,

 

You can add Hikiji Hada (Hankei) which is inspired from Norishige matsukawa.

Hi,

Right :?

Hijiki-hada = A type of ō-mokume-hada or ō-itame-hada with thick chikei.

 

Sounds intresting, Jacques.

 

Anyone´s got a picture of this hada?

Go to Shoshin website:

 

http://www.sho-shin.com/index2.htm - the tanto featured on the left of the page is Hankei

Thanks Jean!

 

I can def see some similar activity in this hada compared to my tanto.

 

Mmm, I wouldn´t want to work as a shinsa-judge...

 

Thanks again, Jean!
