You seem to be quite interested in it, Andrew! Did you get that one from Bruno?
Inquiring minds need to know!

Yes - I had four pieces of this antique tamahagane steel, and Bruno agreed to help make a project out of them. Originally Posted by sharptonn

Hi Rockabillyhelge,
師範用 shihanyou (for professionals) it might sound as "for barber's use"
だ
い DAIRI
り
新刀 shinto - not the religion
新 (shin) means NEW and 刀 (to or also katana) means BLADE, so NEW BLADE.
Maybe it is a kamisori with a new blade shape.
Hope this helps.

Lol,, thanks gents.
I do have an appropriate dopey grin for the way these cleaned up phrank. Definitely.
Honed up amazingly well.
Those pair of Fon's I won are getting the full tear down treatment as they had some deeper pits."Depression is just anger,, without the enthusiasm."
