Ray Singer Posted April 5, 2019 Report Posted April 5, 2019 Listing a very nice gendaito by Unshu Hidemitsu. This is a blade which measures in 66cm. with a 32mm moto-haba. The jihada is a beautiful mixture of ko-itame with an itame nagareru. The hamon is a suguha-based ko-midare in ko-nie with fine activities along the edge. The gendaito is in shirasaya with an accompanying shin-gunto koshirae in very nice condition (with tsunagi). The blade also has a single piece silver habaki. Mei: Unshu Takada ju Hidemitsu kore o-tsukuru Best regards, Ray 2 Quote
ChrisW Posted April 6, 2019 Report Posted April 6, 2019 That's a very lovely blade and habaki. That signature really pops! Lucky guy who gets to take care of this one. 1 Quote
