    this is what fine cloisonne should look like.

    Looks for me like a classy naginata-naoshi katana. I think the yokote is slightly visible. Very nice blade.

    Type3 Nothing else. When someone wrotes nlf i allways think he has no clue. The other terms like RS are total strange and sounds odd.

    Sori is a process of hardning. A blade hardned in water gets more sori than in oil. It also depends on the layer construction of the blade. I think your sword has a sori of 0,9 cm which is in the normal range.

    The sword looks older than shin shinto. You should upload bigger pictures they are very tiny.

    Same motif, different in details.

    Its old i think maybe late edo. I think it is a museum mark or made by the owner.

    I think seki Kanehisa is correct

    I store all my stuff in a tansu and didn't show it. This is for me very exciting because i forget after a while what i have. So when i look on my collection I'm very happy about the new pieces never seen before.

    If you look for a decent model wait. There are so much Type95 out there. No time for hurry. The sword looks re-paint in my eyes. There are some black saya type95 reportet. But this doesn't look authentic colored. It looks like sloopy buba painted.

    Very good Sam. Talented.

    The sword is real. The condition of the blade is nice. But i didn't like the black painted saya with that silverish koiguchi. The sarute is missing.

    Say what you want but its a hell nice sword when you love ara nie.

    The Type3 Gendai Koshirae was the most timeless sword outfit ever made. It's so damend iconic like a Porsche 911.

    You find also some of his entrys on Facebook with the google picture search yuhindo.com Some sites are complete with all the pictures. https://web.archive..../hoshizukiyo-kencho/ But overall its now more an archeological task to bring back all his work. Its a great loss that we lose him. I often think on him.

    You find some snapshots over the years on the wayback.machine. https://web.archive....ai-kunitsugu-katana/ https://web.archive....//yuhindo.com/#start

    How bad is this?

    vajo replied to Reinier's topic in Nihonto

    Reshaped tip. The boshi runs out.

    It looks some what strange with its slender feets. The pearl of wisedom goes in the wrong direction.

    Nothing wrong with that sword. Nice gunto.
  23. vajo
    You show only very little and ask for help. Its a wartime gunto. The kanji says Kanesada as Russ said. My best guess is a showa-to.
  24. vajo
    Not that screw. The tiny little screws on a Type 98 saya are hard to find

    Whats the background collecting such items? Its fatal damaged?
