Thank you all again for the help so far, apologies it's taken me so long to respond with the rest of the pictures.

Thanks for the help and quick response so far, it definitely does get interesting quick. Could you elaborate more about the lost hilt fittings if possible? and what I'd need to get a restoration on the go? I'll get a photo showing the sugata tomorrow. Thanks again

Hi, I've just purchased this sword with very limited information and would love to have some details if anyone can make anything of it. The blade measures 49.5cm with a straight hamon and a signed tang I can make no sense of. Thanks helping if its possible.
