This was a valiant attempt at
compiling a daisho. These are both production
pieces I bought from two different retailers. As
you can see, the drags on the scabbards of the
two swords are different. Minor detail. They are
still two of my favorite pieces, and they have a
few intriguing features. Both have what was
advertised as a gold inlay on the blade - I
highly doubt the use of actual gold on retail
blades being sold out of magazines, but I can't
really prove them otherwise. Both blades have a
fuller, which I think makes any sword look more
elegant. Also, the scabbards for each harbor a
dagger and some other pointy implement (there's
no other name for it).
Above all
else, these two swords are simply aesthetically
pleasing. Even if I did fuck up with the drags.
