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

Scogg Posted March 21 Report Posted March 21 Thank you for reviving this old thread! These 95s with hamon are nice looking Would love a link, or the serial number + stamps if that information is available. Cheers, -Sam Quote

Bruce Pennington Posted March 21 Report Posted March 21 That's a strange tassel they have with it, too. Quote
Scogg Posted March 21 Report Posted March 21 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 March 21 Report Posted March 21 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
