NAMAZU HADA ?

[takakage 0]

is these spots could be patch of namazu hada or shin tetsu ?

 

[paolo placidi 20]

Probably it is Shintetsu if the blade is a tired blade with a long history of polishing.

It seems to be also Shintetsu in the Sginogi-ji.

[Ughen 5]

it's probably shin-testu

a good togi can made a very uniform hada ,without strong colour changes.

but in this case i think that shingane comes out because this sword could be tired
