Maurice_lmb Posted April 18, 2019 Report Posted April 18, 2019 hello Peter mei is : hizen kuni kawachi kami masahiro Maurice Quote
Itomagoi Posted April 18, 2019 Author Report Posted April 18, 2019 Thank you for that very quick answer, Maurice! Quote
Ray Singer Posted April 18, 2019 Report Posted April 18, 2019 I think there's a good chance this is an authentic mei for the nidai (second generation). Quote
Itomagoi Posted April 18, 2019 Author Report Posted April 18, 2019 Cool, thank you for your opinion, Ray! the blade is heavily rusted, so I can't show hada and hamon... Quote
Itomagoi Posted April 19, 2019 Author Report Posted April 19, 2019 This blade has "slots" on both sides. Is it a kind of bo hi? :-) Quote
cisco-san Posted April 24, 2019 Report Posted April 24, 2019 This blade has "slots" on both sides. Is it a kind of bo hi? :-) I have never seen such kind of Bo-hi before.. Quote
Itomagoi Posted April 24, 2019 Author Report Posted April 24, 2019 Yeah, me neither. But it doesn't look random. Quote
ggil Posted April 24, 2019 Report Posted April 24, 2019 looks like a cut rate 'polisher' thought: better than fukure... the 'bohi' are not symmetrical. a good polisher can fix it somehow, I bet. Quote
