I see a star when I close up. Honestly, my first blade was not as good as this one, so just feel happy with it. The blade seem tired but overall healthy. Kind regards, Eric Bonjour! Oh I’m very happy with it! I’m just offering more pictures as a case study at this point; it’s fascinating how an expert eye can reveal such an obscured feature like this stamp! I’m glad it’s overall healthy, despite seeing one or two polishes in its lifetime - Vincent Quote

Thank you very much for your assessment, Brian! Hopefully this was at least interesting to people, in that it offers a perspective on how different stamped arsenal blades can be obscured or hidden - at least, I would feel bad if my humble sword wasted some forum space here, ending up being something most people don’t necessarily want to see. Again, thank you very much for your help! -Vincent Quote
