Dogen Posted June 30, 2016 Report Posted June 30, 2016 I was wandering around Aoi-Arts today and found a katana with some very strange looking damage to the nakago. There are several circular and semi-circular chips and dents on both sides. Any ideas? http://www.aoijapan.com/katana-mumei-kzusa-kami-kaneshige John Quote

SAS Posted June 30, 2016 Report Posted June 30, 2016 some rust issues, suriage, and machi moved up? Quote
Taz575 Posted July 1, 2016 Report Posted July 1, 2016 I've seen very similar markings on tangs as well with the shallow semi circular cutouts on the sides of the tangs and am also curious as to what they are from? Quote
Stephen Posted July 1, 2016 Report Posted July 1, 2016 not cut outs, just rusted then cleaned and stopped 1 Quote
