well were do I start. this picture was clearly taken by a person who knows nothing at all about japanese swords! how's this you say? well the sword pictured can not possible have a bluster because its most likely made from a batch on carbon mono steel. you can only develop a blister when folding the steel and failing to hammer all of the air out that can get trapped, over time the air creates corrosion and expands, thus a blister is born. 2nd- its sporting a fake Hamon either chemically applied or brushed on, so ruling out any machine made blades put into service during the imperial expansion of japan during the 1900s to 1945, which would have passed a quality inspection, iv come to a answer that this would in fact be a cheap piece of crap made in CHINA. the end

  • Agreed, maybe there is a different category it could be in.
