    Mekugi ana are made in similar spot so theory that chuso position depends on it isn’t reliable. Still boston’s murata-to is in T94 but without second hanger [if original to blade?]

    Thanks Bruce. Whole nakago is important for future comparison. Dunno if there is easiest mei to forge.

    Mate I clearly understand your point and don’t looking for beef. Its cheap pappered late muromachi example worth couple hundreads bucks for comparison what you can find out there. It was discussed before on forum. Cheers and no hard feelings.

    Can I get your opinion about this blade? Sugata only please as I bought it just for shape.

    „At least until 1942, Emura personally did the hardening (yaki-ire) of all the swords made at Okayama prison” Both longer and short versions of mei exists with NBTHK/NTHK pappers. Better not to look for mei as indicator for craftsmenship.

    Another example. Katana mei type „B” https://ebay.us/m/BfZfgG no better pictures of entire nakago.

    Looks good for me. Carefully polished.

    Looks like individual order? T98 with interesting tsuba and menuki. No locking mechanism and tsuba appears unadapted for leather fuchi addon. https://ebay.us/m/N6gS5Z

    It dsn’t matter how much money you have. Or how big Your hunger for blades is. Please consider narrowing down to particular era. If You buying becouse You are looking for „Your blade” maybe You should to order brand new one.

    Collecting is not an addiction. It’s a hobby

    Are you able to spot darker parts on this nakago? Usually mekugi ana had some time „in service” so darker patina would point you into direction. Here you have 3.
