Are considered as Odachi swords over 90cm nagasa.

What makes you say it's shingane? And what does shingane look like?

Reliable sources please

Thoughts and Attributions on an O-Suriage'd Wakizashi
Jacques replied to Marcus Devonport's topic in Nihonto
Probably Mino, and late Muromachi -
There is no shingane on tanto (too small).
-
There was an umegane ont his sword, It's gone during the polishing (size 1.5mm).

The author of Nihonto Koza is merely giving his opinion. It is said that Morikuni's work resembles that of Kotetsu (with a certain difference in level), yet Kotetsu's work has nothing that can be linked to Osaka,Kotetsu is a pure EDO swordsmith. I will leave you to draw your own conclusions. Question worth 10000: What distinguishes Osaka from Edo?. Morikuni is also quoted in the Shinto Taikan by Iimura (3 blades) and in the Kanzan Sato's Shinto oshigata dictionnary 1 blade.

Ichimai boshi = Soshu den and end of Muromachi (sue Seki, sue Bizen etc.). Seen on blade by Horikawa Kuniyasu (Shinto).

They don't know how to write kanji, yet they act like experts. This “Kuni” is engraved in the normal way....

Yasuhiro information (more pics coming)

If only the two who downvoted me had any kind of argument, but they don't even have that. Einstein's fans without any doubt...

Learn to look at what you need to look at.... This sword has been suriage, which means that the takanoha yasuri are not the original ones. -
OMG
-
Juyo or simple hozon, the mei must be soshin...

You have to prove that it's not a gimei... https://tokka.biz/sword/hikisada.html https://www.nipponto.co.jp/swords6/NT330167.htm

Unfortunately gimei, the ji Seki is engraved in a wrong maner
-
I recognized my mistake, and just because I made a mistake once doesn't mean I make mistakes every time. Sadakazu (shodai) and Sadakatsu. That said, I wonder why I'm still here. I'm getting tired of reading all this nonsense, so I'm going to make myself scarce. Some people will be happy about that. For the answer, those who are interested can just ask me via PM.
-
These two smiths have a particular way of engraving certain tagane (they are vertical). I ask which ones and why.
-
Bryce, You still haven't answered my question, and I'll tell you why: You don't know the answer. For someone who claims to be an expert on these two swordsmiths, that's a bit silly. An oshigata is not a photograph; there are things that cannot be seen.
-
And you are unable to describe the characteristics that these two smiths have in common. You still haven't told me how you knew it was a daimei.
-
Right (you own Fujjishiro's shinto hen) but how can you see it's a daimei ? I've a big doubt the third (from left) on the above line is a Sadakazu from Meiji... https://eirakudo.shop/token/tachikatana/detail/838671 I'm waiting for an answer to my asking
-
Not even, that's why daimei have deliberate differences (Kunisada for example). You still haven't answered the question. What do you think about this one ?
