Mr. Morita, Thank you very much for your help I am really grateful. Regards G. Hoogewey

Thanks for your answers. I collect (like) Japanese things I have some bronzes, Woodblock prints a couple of tansu, some Buddha's, tsuba's, porcelain and a couple of swords. I have not much knowledge about nihonto. By the way this one is signed is it possible to narrow the search which Tadamitsu this could be. I know it's difficult without a visible hamon or boshi. Regards Ger

Ger Hoogewey The Netherlands / The Hague I stumbled Yesterday over this wakizashi together with a katana The wakizashi is in bad shape I can not see hamon or a boshi Though it looks like I can see some kind of hamon line but this could be made with a buffin machine some ugly pitting / dents on the cutting edge A friend of mine translated this as: Bitchu Tadamitsu most Tadamitsu sign with osafune this one not Can somebody tell me if we are right with the translation Is this wakizashi worth fixing up ????? Regards Ger Hoogewey
