Bridges Posted December 31, 2022 Report Posted December 31, 2022 Hey guys, this Jitte has caught my attention. The roughness of the shark skin and mon just seems to draw me in. I have no experience with these, what is the going rate? https://www.ebay.com/itm/354218071258?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=ksslb2eqqqm&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=5b5Igx0HQ7e&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY Quote
Gilles Posted December 31, 2022 Report Posted December 31, 2022 I have learnt the hard way that most jitte that are on sale on the internet are fakes. This one could be legit but obviously it has a new shark skin handle. 1 Quote
Bridges Posted December 31, 2022 Author Report Posted December 31, 2022 Thanks for letting me know Gilles, I know nothing about jitte so I appreciate it Quote
ROKUJURO Posted December 31, 2022 Report Posted December 31, 2022 Noah, that is probably not a MON, but an ornament serving as MENUKI. Usually, JITTE don't have MEKUGI nor MENUKI. 1 Quote
Ken-Hawaii Posted January 1, 2023 Report Posted January 1, 2023 Jean is correct, Noah. Authentic jitte are very basic, & made for hard use. 1 Quote
Bridges Posted January 1, 2023 Author Report Posted January 1, 2023 Thanks Jean, this is why I ask the pros! I’ll remember that going forward Ken Quote
