That sword was nice before it was polished
-
Btw celluloid same is not a sign of bad quality! I like swords with celluloid same. The, are much more robust than rayskin. Nagamitsu gendai-to uses celluloid and burlap. Are these cheap ones?
-
My personel opinion is that the sword is resampled. The blade did not really fit to the fittings. The seppa didn't fit to the rest. The Tsuka is badly rewraped. The Tsuba is a high quality one. The Fuchi/Kashira is very nice. Overall good parts combined with a cheap blade.

Could you show us the whole koshirae?
-
The tsuba is a nice work but an idiot make it gimei. This is such total noobish made that a rookie like me can see it. Without that signature it would be a good tsuba.

Wakizashi Antique or modern made?

For me it looks like a koto sword. Late Muromachi period. -

This could be a hidden gem. -
I think it is an o-suriage, machi-okuri koto blade. A little tired but not bad at all.

Muromasa in Japan with no shinsa - 100% gimei.

Lovely Tsuba

I need 5 of these screws - cheap!

First Nihonto, dark spot on the blade?

Dont do to much oil on your blade. Oil it and wipe it of. Thats enough. -
Late Edo Wakizashi Tsuka. Nice mountings. The other Menuki is a moon.
