Okan Posted April 26, 2022 Report Posted April 26, 2022 Sword is not papered so I wanted to ask for your opinion if you think it's gimei or not. Thank you! Quote
Ray Singer Posted April 26, 2022 Report Posted April 26, 2022 I think it is safe to say that this is not the shodai, but other generations used a gojimei. Best suggest for this is always to ask Roger: http://hizento.net/ Best regards, Ray 1 Quote
NewB Posted April 26, 2022 Report Posted April 26, 2022 I agree with Ray, definitely Not shodai otherwise everything else looks good including the sayagaki unless the blade doesn't match. J. 1 1 Quote
ROKUJURO Posted April 26, 2022 Report Posted April 26, 2022 Didn't they use TACHI-MEI also on WAKIZASHI? Quote
DoTanuki yokai Posted April 27, 2022 Report Posted April 27, 2022 Katana Mei on Wakizashi is correct for Hizento but they even sign Naginata Tachi-mei. 1 Quote

omidaijo Posted June 1, 2022 Report Posted June 1, 2022 Hi Okan, 100% Gimei! Sword looks nice though. 3 Quote
WillFalstaff Posted June 4, 2022 Report Posted June 4, 2022 First thing that caught my eye was the pronounced funbari. Usually I have to look to see it on a blade. Very nice blade, though. @omidaijo I’ll be downloading your book as soon as our new house is finished and we close on it. I swear! Quote
