Hello Gavin,
Yes. back to my sword. Please excuse for my use of terms.
The details which suggests Korean origin:
- the guard / tsuba
- almos double edged tip / false edge/ yelman
- two hangers on the scabbard. I think it is missing one.
More ambiguous details:
- crude lamination. I also can't see Harmon nor traces of San mai.
- really crude fuller. Not crisp.
- no fittings like habaki and seppu
- all leather wrappings
Thank you for your interesting posts and pictures by the way.
