Ron STL Posted February 1, 2017 Report Posted February 1, 2017 Ko-gatana looks to have a nice, healthy hamon. Wonder who "really" made it? Ron STL Quote
Ray Singer Posted February 1, 2017 Report Posted February 1, 2017 The mei may be good. The Kaneuji line went on through late Edo, and the later generations used the mei Shizu Saburo Kaneuji (Nōshū Ōgaki-ju Shizu Saburo Kaneuji). The later Ōgaki Kaneuji smiths were kogatana specialists.
