Hi Tom, o-suriage but not mumei, Tsuruta san raks this jo saku and the blade is in the wakizashi price range.

Hi Tom, Katana is Tachi mei ( ura mei) , o-suriage is not common, and for that price it's really a bargain.

Ō-suriage is *always* mumei. But the relevant sentence in the item description is probably a copy-and-paste error, it looks ubu to me. In any case, it is neither mentioned on the Japanese page, nor in Mr. Tanobe’s sayagaki.

 

Bargain? I wonder why it's still for sale after more than 4 months on the website ... maybe because the -wara (-hara) of Fujiwara is missing ...?

MEIN GOTT!!!   I let reading "Peter's Pages" slip for a while and I come back to a day or two's reading on its own!!!  Well, I tuned in because I have found a couple of interesting things and thought I may as well post them here:

 

1.  How Japan's ancient  trees could tell the future

         http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20190205-does-the-climate-shape-social-change

 

2.  The survival of Japan's music rests on artificial ivory

         http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20190403-the-survival-of-japans-music-rests-on-artificial-ivory

 

Regards,

BaZZa.
