DaveM4P99 Posted March 23, 2012 Report Posted March 23, 2012 I am just learning...but that Hada looks...strange...no? Quote
paulb Posted March 23, 2012 Report Posted March 23, 2012 Dave you are absolutely right it is a Chinese fake and not a very good one. Quote
Brian Posted March 23, 2012 Report Posted March 23, 2012 Everything looks strange on this one. In fact, nothing looks right. Terrible fittings, really bad habaki. Damascus type grain...everything is bad. Very fake. Brian Quote
DaveM4P99 Posted March 23, 2012 Author Report Posted March 23, 2012 Cool thanks guys...Just cruising some online auction sites, and saw this...I figured the shape looked good, but when I zoomed in on the blade, it was a mess! The damascus grains look really deep and fake...not Japanese at all. The saya and tsuba are quite tacky looking as well! Fun...first time I have spotted a fake! Not like it was very hard though. haha Quote
raven2 Posted March 23, 2012 Report Posted March 23, 2012 Yep, about as fake as they come. I really hate seeing things like this. So sloppy and poorly made. Quote
