Ontario_Archaeology Posted December 14, 2021 Report Posted December 14, 2021 Hello everyone. I recently bought a small gunto Koshiere from Matt J. We are now working on finding a blade for it that will make the piece complete! The measurements required are: The Blade length must be 14-16 inches (35.5cm-40.6cm The mihaba on the tsunagi is 1 1/4 inches to 1 3/8 inches (3.2cm - 3.5cm) The Nagasa is 15 inches the distance from the hamachi / munemachi to the mekugi-ana in the nakago is 5.5cm Placement of the mekugi-ana in the nakago is 2 1/4 inches below the machi (5.5cm below the machi) My price is 1-3k USD. Any questions please post here or DM me. Look forward to seeing if anyone can help!
ChrisW Posted December 14, 2021 Report Posted December 14, 2021 These things have really been coming out of the woodwork lately! There's been an ongoing discussion on very short gunto mounts/blades.

Not really easy to find, I think! It is probably the NAKAGO that is 15 cm in length?
Ontario_Archaeology Posted December 14, 2021 Author Report Posted December 14, 2021 I'll double check but I believe you are correct. Thank you
