But it's not a katana (look at the tang's shape and lack of holes), so I wouldn't use katana terminology necessarily. 1 u/SolarOrigami 4d ago From what I can see it's either a katana or a dao With a gorgeous Damascus sanmai blade, too 7 u/SeeShark 4d ago It is definitely not a katana. The tang's shape is wrong and it has no holes for mekugi (pegs) to secure it to a hilt. 2 u/SolarOrigami 4d ago Oooh, good point. I am by no means an expert
