Good afternoon 

I have a blade by godai kinmichi circa 1751/1764 it has a nagasa of 52.8cm and a sori of 1mm or less, it has a width at the machi of 2.37cm and yokote 1.7cm…..

 Because of the lack of Sori & lack of width I can only imagine the blade being made for a walking stick,  

does anyone have any other suggestions please.

 

best regards 

Ian

Thank you Jean

I just looked Shikomi-zue up in Sesko’s Encyclopaedia of Japanese Swords and it tells me all about it 👏👏👍

Thank you 

Ian
