    http://www.aoijapan.com/katana-oite-efu ... toshi-yaku It is not the first gassaku seen by them, often with sugu ha, but it is the first time that i see a masame hada on a tsunatoshi blade. I have checked carefully pictures and it seems true, masame hada on it. have a nice day.
  2. Just for the fun... http://www.nona.dti.ne.jp/~sword/katana ... ahiro.html astonishing isn't it ?
  3. Often for such tanto, nagasa are short and small motohaba. http://www.e-sword.jp/sale/2014/1410_3011syousai.htm
  4. Likely this nobukazu is the pupil of korekazu like this one. http://www.e-sword.jp/sale/2013/1310_3034syousai.htm

    Hi Jean, No it isn't the same sword, the boshi is little different to the aoi's blade. However, if Tsuruta give me this one, i should be happy

    Hum, http://www.aoijapan.com/appraisal-quiz-281 I see plenty masame and not itame . I'm wonder if it is not the same blade of an old Nbthk kantei of Kiyondo
  9. Hi, May be i'm wrong but i find taganes strange for the kanji sada.
  10. Too bad for the nakago jiri and yasuri mei cancelled. I found such suguta and mei nobu x saku with some owari smith as nobuchika a pupil of nobutaka 6th.
  11. More photos of the nakago and blade please.
  12. I've got one many years ago , oil quenched blade without any stamp but with saku.
  13. You should look the well known shin shinto smith. http://nihontoclub.com/view/smiths/meis ... ei=naotane (I am not an expert)
  14. Hi, Rather a badly mei of naotane. http://sanmei.com/contents/media/S2798_S8899_PUP_E.html

    MOTOHIRA YARI

    Hi, Such yari have always a very long nakago. I have seen few months ago , 2 of them , both shin shinto, kanetsugu and kunizumi with nakago of 75 and 71 cm. Same ko itame hada and sugu ha in ko nie deki. The first with a shortened pole of 230cm (270 cm before).
  20. Nice, thanks a lot Chris. Kanetsugu makes enju utsushi too http://www.toukenkomachi.com/index_en_t ... 61113.html
  21. http://www.e-sword.jp/sale/2014/1410_1045syousai.htm First picture of the kimura family may be a mistake with a name. It is kane tsugu and not kanehide morever real name of kanetsugu is kimura kanesada. Kaneshige is the father of Kanetsugu. Chris, do you agree ?
