Thanks Bruce and everyone who contributed knowledge to help me learn about this blade.🙏🏻 Nothing but respect.

Thanks Con. Here a close up of saya. Only one seppa and it’s marked 9/7/0. No marks on Tsuba.

Hash marks and file marks but only partially. No stamps nor signature. Rough nakago at edges. Got the habaki off. Is blade genuine?

Hamon is etched? Thanks for all responses. So helpful here.🙏🏻 Again, sorry for the bad/eyesore pics earlier.

Still having issues with image resized last few pics. Sorry.

Omg, will repost in a bit. Not sure what happened.

Hello all, unsure if blade is authentic. Hamon is a concern but other features point to forgery? some pics are better on white background. cannot seem to be able to remove habaki. Thanks for all reply’s in advance.

Thanks so much. I’ll take apart and try a better pic later. It does have light surface rust and will take on brighter background. 🙏🏻

Oops, name is Harvey. First post. Thanks for help in advance.

Kanji translation please. From Type 98. Many thanks.
