An extremely complicated blade pattern
This post is for those collectors that appreciate patterned blades and for any blacksmiths that have created pattern welded blades.
This is a Chinese blade, 17/18th century, with a blade that features both twistcore AND a horse tooth Hamon. Fine twistcore that is tight without seam openings is an accomplishment and horse tooth Hamon by itself is a complicated feat. To find them together is quite rare.
Enjoy.
