Hello Kai,

thank you for your usual informed comment. The length is 57 cm (22.4 inch). I am not sure that the crest got broken off formerly, I think I have seen this form before but I may be wrong.
The blade wasn't clean down from the hilt at the gangya area but it was done this evening and I have etched the blade. The reaction was very fast and you can see the result by the attached images.
In the moment I am afraid to open the hilt because I am not used with this technic, maybe later when I am trained by this.

Please let all know me what you think about the result, was the etch to strong?
