I just watched a video by Murray Carter where he defines Hamon as the wavy line near the edge that separates the hard steel core from the softer cladding...
I always thought that a Hamon was the wavy line near the spine on Honyaki blades caused by the differential heat treatment.
Can the term be used for either of these or is Murray wrong?
Just wondering,
thanks
