Textbook nagamitsu mei.

Some things look good, some are bad. I dont like the lower part of the tsuka. The upper part is perfect. The seppa looks lower quality. As Bruce notice the over stamp of the fuchi is curious. Overall i think the sword is legit.

Beautifull Tsuba Jimi. The guy in front of him looks like Lional Ritchie 😃

https://www.collecto...ria.com/contact.html Looks like he has some hosting problems There is a phone number? Did you try to call him? -
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.

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

Older Nihontou in a shira saya

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.

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

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.
