Hello,
This sword is being offered, really cheap. I do not expect it to be nihonto, of course, but I would like to try and figure out its manufacture to see if it's worth getting it for practice. I'm aware that some (bad) China swords carve Japanese-looking gibberish to pass them as nihonto or whatever, but there are also some decent forges that make good swords and sign their swords' nakago. Just want to see which species this one is...
Thank you!
