Eds Posted January 24, 2023 Report Posted January 24, 2023 Translation assistance. Thank you BTW. The vegas show was awesome. Tony Smith had the best display and amount of swords in my opinion. I learned alot Quote
Eds Posted January 24, 2023 Author Report Posted January 24, 2023 Sounds right Is there a time frame for this smith? Quote

Eds Posted January 24, 2023 Author Report Posted January 24, 2023 I guess my concern was Machine made vs traditional made Quote
Okan Posted January 24, 2023 Report Posted January 24, 2023 27 minutes ago, Eds said: I guess my concern was Machine made vs traditional made You haven't share the pics of the blade yet. From the nakago it's traditional. Quote
Okan Posted January 24, 2023 Report Posted January 24, 2023 Yes it's traditional, if this the answer you are looking for at the moment. Quote
Eds Posted January 25, 2023 Author Report Posted January 25, 2023 Yes it is. I have too many type 97 and type 98 non traditional swords and am looking to upgrade my collection. Older swords in military configuration are ok with me Thanks 😊 again VR Ed Quote
DTM72 Posted January 25, 2023 Report Posted January 25, 2023 Judging by the patina on the nakago and the 2 mekugi-ana, I would say it pre-dates WWII and is traditionally made. Quote
Eds Posted February 19, 2023 Author Report Posted February 19, 2023 additional pics. . .. .not the best of the blade Quote
