Eunjangdo
Recently acquired this locally at a garage sale. some of the contents of the sale were from a person from Japan who has passed, I also got a carved document seal, which could be of interest., The box it came with has no info. it looked like a trinket from a tourist shop at first, I had a suspicion of silver, and when I saw the blade I knew it was something of quality, . I work as a silversmith making jewelry in 925.. I took it upon myself to clean it carefully with a good silver dip, I know I really probably shouldn't have, i didn't research it yet and didn't have much concern into it. it does shine nicer in the moonlight now,. I did take pictures before cleaning, and fixed up an old camera for some better photos afterwards.
anybody know a little more about these? I'm curious about the dohong? or niello? anybody able to translate? that would be realy cool also. thanks for looking. here is the previous info i found. and there is a few videos on youtube concerning eunjangdo, korean silver knives etc.. http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=21795 http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=15166 |
