Nihonto is finaly here. 25-3/4in. nagasa, 9/10in. sori, 8-1/4in nakagao. My hats off to all of you here who produce such wonderful photography. As I found out, it is not easy. This sword is in a war time polish, which is still nice for the period. It is in my opinion tightly grained, and I was suprised to see the hada is mainly masame and some itame, and choji hamon. Hopefully, the not so great camera phone pictures translate well here.
