ribendao Posted May 24, 2022 Report Posted May 24, 2022 The age old question, hagiri or scratches? What do you think? pics are of both sides of the blade. Quote

Okan Posted May 24, 2022 Report Posted May 24, 2022 Scratches..noticing hagiri would be much easier as it looks more like a crack. Quote
ChrisW Posted May 24, 2022 Report Posted May 24, 2022 If it is on both sides of the blade in the exact same spot starting from the edge upwards, then the chance of it being hagire is drastically higher. But no, these are scratches from cutting something. Quote

Expand Some of those scratches look uniform. I'm not sure if the saya is the cause, or not. You can remove those light scratches easily. Should contact a togi. Quote
