    Interesting Bohi

    Brad, Is it papered? This will help to specify the period when it was forged. Otherwise, it is difficult to give a time frame. It seems the nakago has been slightly altered to rework the hamachi. The Nakago does not look very Muromachi.
  20. WWII blade, Seki stamp. Factory blade
  21. Rivkin, There are always other cases, one of which being a Yamato blade which is famous on the Board. It has a double sayagaki on the shirasaya: On the Omote, Sayakaki by Honma Junji to Hosho school. On the Ura, sayagaki by Tanobe to Hosho school I submitted the sword to Shinsa, it came back with an NBTHK Hozon Kanteisho to Tegai Kanekiyo who forged in masame.
