Description
The Kantei Reference Book - Hamon & Boshi is a concise guide to identifying specific examples of hamon and boshi in Japanese blades. Published by Markus Sesko, this publication builds upon his previous two-volume project, expanding the collection to include over 400 interpretations.
Originally intended as a supplement to his earlier work, the author has created a unique resource that showcases detailed illustrations of hamon and boshi, rather than schematic representations. This compact guide is designed to aid in the identification of specific blades, providing a useful starting point for further research and confirmation.
It may also prove helpful in oshigata-based kantei riddles, where only the hamon and boshi are provided. With its focus on practical application, this book offers a valuable resource for anyone interested in Japanese blades or seeking to deepen their understanding of these intricate designs.
