I recieved from Grey Doffin (www.japaneseswordbooksandtsuba.com) today a very, very nice Dotanuki Katana with Hozon. All aspects of the deal was a pleasure for me. Thank you very much Grey.

 

I will collect further Dotanuki blades, if someone want to make me happy  :)  (I like that school very much).

 

Regards

Chris

Hi Rob,

thank you for your kind words.  :)

 

It is a mumei o-suriage higo dotanuki blade around genki period with hozon papered.

The nagasa is 70.5 cm with a wide o-kissaki, the blade has a broad mihada.

The hamon ist suguha and gunome. Very nice cut hiromono and bo-hi on both sides, bonji fudo myoo and a so-no kurikara dragon around a ken.

The blade is very powerfull, with a gold plated ganseki habaki. The blade is stored in a old shirasaya with sayagaki.

 

I'm very proud to have this nice sword. Thanks again to Grey.
