Tonkotsu Posted October 6, 2020 Report Posted October 6, 2020 Here is a tanto with all of the fittings made of antler. The blade is unsigned but the kozuka is signed. The hamon is visible in the photograph. I have enjoyed the quality of the carving. Any information you could give me would be greatly appreciated since my knowledge about Japanese swords is very limited. I can take additional photographs if necessary. Thank you, Dick 1 Quote

Peter Bleed Posted October 6, 2020 Report Posted October 6, 2020 I hopped on this thread - hoping and expecting to see an Ainu blade. This piece is rather rustic, but hihgly refined. I see this as a very nice Japanese blade. It is terrific, but not Ainu. Peter 1 Quote
