CB should know, nicely cut mei, Todd seems you've have found a good source, very nice blades lately.

It would be nice to share the fittings on this one. think the smith is Kanenobu (even if the bottom box on the right is missing) sorry i dont have kanji fonts like others have.

starting at the highest its Saijosaku" "JoJosaku" Josaku" "Chujiosaku" "Chusaku" so its second up from the lowest rank. which does not make it bad just a sound smith. Is the hamon suguba? Id think about talking to someone about repatina the tsuba, unless all the bright is flash.

got out my english translation for Fujishiro hes rated Chujosaku
-
Veli do you have Fujishiros rating it may give a better rank to where he stands.
