Brian Posted August 2, 2020 Report Posted August 2, 2020 Not "likely" no hamon...definitely no hamon. Just about all hardened steels need to be tempered or they will be brittle. Even oil quenched to some degree I bet. 1 Quote

Bruce Pennington Posted Friday at 02:47 PM Report Posted Friday at 02:47 PM That's a strange tassel they have with it, too. Quote
Scogg Posted Friday at 02:59 PM Report Posted Friday at 02:59 PM I think that's meant to be the "tie" for the sword bag Although, I've seen those "ties" added to swords as psuedo tassels before. Cheers, -Sam 1 Quote
Conway S Posted Friday at 04:54 PM Report Posted Friday at 04:54 PM Maybe it's just the picture quality, but the habaki looks silvery as opposed to brass. 108,XXX serial number should be Suya. Conway Quote
