Cello Posted April 23, 2014 Report Posted April 23, 2014 Can anyone make out the mei . I posted this awhile back but I'm reposting it with additional images since it's now mine. I was told it may be Hasebe school? Can anyone comment as to its overall quality including fittings and the horimono? I feel the horimono seems fairly well done but what do I know lol.......... Quote
Cello Posted April 23, 2014 Author Report Posted April 23, 2014 Thanks Mark for the quick response would you have any idea as to what the horimono is. Quote
Mark Posted April 23, 2014 Report Posted April 23, 2014 one side looks like gombashi and the other a dragon and ken Quote
Marius Posted April 23, 2014 Report Posted April 23, 2014 and it is not a tanto, but a (late) Muromachi wakizashi. Quote
Cello Posted April 23, 2014 Author Report Posted April 23, 2014 My fault not sure why I titled it as a tanto it was late in the evening LoL. I would correct the title but not sure how? Quote
Marius Posted April 23, 2014 Report Posted April 23, 2014 There is an "edit" button below your first Post. You will be able to edit the title of the post. Quote
Cello Posted April 23, 2014 Author Report Posted April 23, 2014 Ahhh..... I didn't realize the title could be edited after it was posted.I knew the body of the post could, so I've learned something thanks! Quote
Marius Posted April 23, 2014 Report Posted April 23, 2014 Marcello, a shot based on the pics: I'd say Soshu or Shimada wakizashi, late Muromachi. Quote
