  1. Very informative about the nie and ko-nie Thanks John
  2. I mean Disrespect before I get called out on my spelling
  3. NO it’s not that i don’t trust him I just wanted to be clear if it’s Showato or Traditional John I think the nie you pointed out may be a finger print that was in the description but I could be mistaken Also the Mei that’s recording was hard to make out If it’s said to be Gentaito I believe it and meant know desriespect
  4. According to book of John slough there’s 2 types Gentaito or Showato which one is this sword? I’m having a hard time with the Mei since it’s not clear
  5. Can I get help with the translation Dose it match the sword smith above? Thanks

  11. I know this sword was listed before but my concern Is it traditional or arsenal After research it’s mentioned this smith made arsenal swords I could be wrong but thought I can get help from others Also looks like some oxidation but not sure with the photos The date was mentioned 1942 but i think its 1944
  12. Thanks to all for your help I agree Conway it’s interesting the tsuka an saya are lacquered According to the seller the sword doesn’t fit in the saya and he doesn’t know why? My guess there not compatible I thought it would be a buying opportunity but don’t think so now It’s still listed on EBay if anyone’s interested Steve
  13. Any help with translation would be appreciated thank you Steve
