 At late as this point , I can only say "No" that is not true.

 

 

Far as  I do remember, many of the Heian Blades are Maru...

Kobuse only on WWII blades....

Not according to my studies,.

This author's opinion on the state-of-the-art of Japanese smithing in Jokoto are far to be supported by academic studies and plainly wrong (Ohmura strikes again...)

Thanks Peter. 

 

The Japanese sword section has a lot of errors, but the metallurgy part is good. On a different topic, I found the part about the Ulfberth swords to be most interesting. 

 

Fascinating stuff.
