    Michael, I agree with you there. Just because there is an accepted date, doesn't mean that everything changed overnight. I have another one I find interesting. I have a Harima Ujishige katana dated 1789. By the date, it's classed as Shinshinto, however, I would still class it as Shinto.

    I have a Dotanuki Kozukenosuke. According to records and book listings, he listed as Shinto, 1596- 1615. However, the Sugata, is definitely Momoyama! Personally, I would still class this sword as Koto. Unfortunately, it doesn't have a nengo.

    It looks like a Chinese copy.

    Osuriage, cut down from a Katana, maybe. Also, it looks like the kissaki has been re-shaped.
  5. David Flynn
    USPS, is being gutted on purpose. They want privatisation.

    O-Mokume?

    David Flynn replied to Nicholas's topic in Nihonto

    Looks like late Edo Mino, to me.

    He wants to know about the durability, I think.
  8. David Flynn
    I haven't seen one for awhile. They usually have Mokume or Omokume hada, with a Mino style Hamon and Hataraki.

    John, I think you mean Late Meiji. His first ten years are classed as Shinshinto.

    Signed Kanemichi, or Kanenao .

    I have been receiving unsolicited messages from someone, even though I have asked them to stop.

    Quite possibly, Kazu uchi Mono.

    I saw this sword in person, at the NBTHK Museum, while it was on the new Juyo display.

    Chinese copy unfortunately. Not worth much.

    Also, Sadakatsu is third Gen, in the modern Gassan Tradition. Sadayoshi, Sadakazu, then Sadakatsu.
