Shuriken Posted January 3, 2024 Report Posted January 3, 2024 Hi all, Would this be considered ikari-kissaki? Quote
Scogg Posted January 3, 2024 Report Posted January 3, 2024 (edited) It looks like o-kissaki to me Hard to tell from your photo, does it turn back at all? Image from google for reference: Edited January 3, 2024 by GeorgeLuucas Quote
Shuriken Posted January 3, 2024 Author Report Posted January 3, 2024 Hi @GeorgeLuucas, my eyes are glitchy. At first it looked curved, now it does look straight. O-kissaki seems more appropriate. Quite long though. Maybe nagamaki? Quote
Shuriken Posted January 3, 2024 Author Report Posted January 3, 2024 Additional info, the kissaki measures 5.5 inches. Quote
Scogg Posted January 3, 2024 Report Posted January 3, 2024 Definitely a large kissaki! I’m not quite knowledgeable enough to tell if it might be a Nagamaki. A look at the whole sugata, without habiki, would help those who are. My guess would be that it’s just a strong o-kissaki on a katana or wakizashi Best of luck, -Sam Quote
