Just won this, I should have it by Tuesday but wanted some opinions in the interim based on the sugata and nakago if the mei might be shoshin? Thanks in advance!

Sorry 6k even. AN UJIFUSA WWII ARMY OFFICER KATANA | 66.7cm | NTHK-NPO Kanteisho x 2 | ~$6,000 Item#: ujgu011 This sword is stunning as it has recently been polished and fresh shirasaya crafted. Carries a rare Samurai family kamon (emblem) on the hilt – a sword of distinction. NTHK-NPO certification BOTH the sword AND the original Army Officer fittings. Mint condition http://new.uniquejapan.com/currently-av ... com=Swords

Another member purchased this and returned it. It was posted here last spring I think? Looks like a nice sword. -

Sorry I wanted to ask what the production dates were for the 2 ujitomo's you found? Regards,

John, Thank you for your time!!! Just confirming the unique kanji used was a great help!!! Much appreciated!

Here is the mei and blade but it is out of polish and impossible for me top photgraph as I have issues when taking pictures of fully polished blades. The mei looks suspect but not like written by gaijin bad, but strange. Thanks!

I have a wakizashi signed noshu ju ujitomo that i am trying to get more info on. I can only fine one smith from the naoe-shizu group but the sugata is muromachi jidai. The hamon starts with koshiba to a o choji midare to a fukuoka bizen looking hamon. Anyone have any info on any ujitomo from around oei on? Thanks!!

erased, wrong post:-) Nice sword!!!

Could it be hidenori? 宜 宣 They are both close...

Thank you all! I think Moriyama san is correct. Again, very much appreciated!

Shin-gunto mounted sword rusted but this mei is driving me crazy! any and all help appreciated!

For 160.00 I figured I couldn't lose! The silver kojiri is several tombo overlapping each other. It was mounted like a hunting knife, strange. Brian, I agree shinshinto but is this a kikuchi style tanto or is there another name? Thanks for the input guys!!!!

A friend just picked this up for me in a antique shop in the middle of nowhere. Ive seen the cheezy carved ivory or bone koshirae before but this is different. Any ideas? should this be lacquered like faux tsuka ito? Thank you!

I dont think its disrespectful nor that anyone can tell him what to do.. I however would not have done that because of quality, but to each his own. Does anyone else see Bishu? -
The auction ends today for this sword. Nice sword though, I thought about it for a minute...
