I agree with the description. That said, there appear to be some condition issues on the blade. I'm a little puzzled by the changes of wood color under the metalwork.
My understanding is its intended purpose was for a woman to defend her honor, in a society where a woman's place was defined by strongly Confucian values. Best, F |

Lew, I think and hoped that it is an eunjangdo.  See for comparison the example in up. Maybe not so fancy like the one in up but I think that by this one I can be sure that it is authentic. And i like the well worked small blade with the mark.Regards, Detlef Last edited by Sajen; 28th April 2012 at 08:28 PM. |
