Dear Alexsandr.

 

It's either:

1  A mumei shinshinto wakizashi.

2  A shinto mumei wakizashi

3  A wakizashi formed by o suriage from a katana.

4  A wakizashi formed by o suriage from a tachi

5  None of the above.

 

I only left out a koto wakizashi because of the patina on the nakago, and that's about the only thing we can see.  

 

Asking for a kantei opinion from, with respect, fairly poor photographs of an out of polish mumei wakizashi is a stretch too far.  I know there is some shape to the hamon but not being able to discern the boshi, hataraki, hada or yakidashi if it's there.......Nice fuchi though.

 

 

All the best.
