Clement Posted September 22, 2014 Report Posted September 22, 2014 Hello, This is a tanto for sale in my town. The nakago seem to be cleaned up and a new polish is clearly needed. Still, what do you think about this tanto ? Thanks for sharing Quote
Brian Posted September 22, 2014 Report Posted September 22, 2014 Junk. Sorry, just calling it as I see it. That blade shape is consistent with late Meiji export pieces of no art value. I would be surprised if it was a half decent blade. Brian Quote
Clement Posted September 22, 2014 Author Report Posted September 22, 2014 ok, not much more to say i guess. It's an auction, announced to be Edo period, estimed to 300 Euros. It would be Kane on the mei but i'm not sure at all. Quote
Peter Bleed Posted September 22, 2014 Report Posted September 22, 2014 Still, what do you think about this tanto ? I think you should let someone else buy this sword. The "mei" was not written by a Japanese and the blade looks like it was trimmed off from the front. Peter Quote
