Ronald Aguirre Posted October 24 Report Share Posted October 24 Hey everyone! I was hoping to get your thoughts on the age and value of this katana. To my eyes, it’ looks to be koto. I’m thinking Muromachi or earlier? It has a double habaki, it looks to be osuriage Mumei katana. I have the chance to buy it from the seller. Any guesses on bite value?

ckaiserca Posted Saturday at 08:54 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 08:54 PM Very hard to tell anything from these photos. I can't make out any trace of a hamon and it looks like there is either rust or some other damage to to blade’s edge. Without better pictures, I would pass on this one.

Shugyosha Posted Sunday at 07:10 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 07:10 PM Hi Ronald, What Charles said: hard to tell much from the photos, hang on to your money and spend it on something where you’ll know what you’re getting. Check out the sales section on here. Good hunting! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tohagi Posted Monday at 09:33 AM Report Share Posted Monday at 09:33 AM I suppose the scale is in inches, not cm? Best Éric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
