Klaver Posted August 9, 2016 Report Posted August 9, 2016 Hi all, This is a second piece my friend showed me. The nakago includes a mei, those are two characters so means its the Smith name. I am pretty sure about the First 助 Suke cannot find in my books the second. This one is a wakizashi, it has masame hada and gunome hamon in nie with some chikei if I am right. It has no tsuba, but koshirae is nice and is Ubu. The polish is not to great also but for and old piece its okay, you can also see the strike and the Ha and Mune has some scratches. Not papered also, what do you think?? Quote
Klaver Posted August 9, 2016 Author Report Posted August 9, 2016 okay many thanks, I overlooked this character. I am always aware of gimei as far as I can construe this. I see you have a lot of generations sukemitsu smiths. But I found another piece which the mei looks very different and more faded or old. What are your thoughts about this? Quote
