I would like to get Your opinion on this piece. I didn't bought it etc. Pictures resemble Komonjo's Blade looks like cleaned with acid? Jihada is dense. Mei is legit? Kanji have big gap between them. Nakago jiri shape is preshowa? Habaki 2 piece and under it oil leftovers, but tsuba rim isn't grinded. Be as harsh as You can so I would never think about similar piece. https://www.ebay.com/itm/358458291533

Is this original mekugi ana since certification process? [2019] It's described as single but it's clearly shaped after another drill - dunno if someone tried to make some savings on koshirae and instead of making proper tsuka he fixed ana. What is Your opinion? It's big blade, swinging it with loose peg is safe? In the middle of compilation is photo from NBTHK and at sides dealer pics. Thank You for opinion

So I found this book online: https://www.behance.net/gallery/41878025/5000-MON-Japanese-FAMILY-CRESTS Can anyone check some pages to define if copyright still aply? Maybe We could add this to download section? This kind of book [J version]printed goes around 40$, maybe You have other titles with actual translation?

https://www.behance.net/gallery/41878025/5000-MON-Japanese-FAMILY-CRESTS Page 228 check book by Yourself but I didn't spot more similar. For translation ask in translation tab.

How You want to made common registry without computers in 50’s It would be taking years with this blade volumen to get something changed -
You are right about koshirae, but blade itself with number and stamp? I added link to entire thread. Here you go example from this number range.

Check this out. If not fake it's ultimate super duper last stage. Number 212480 with [seki?] stamp consistent with examples in nmb thread https://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/230045197_wwii-type-95-wood-pineapple-handle-katana-reseda-ca

Yes! Ask for original auction pictures, Eric did great job. You got nice example.

Volker, You bought this great piece from Stefan? I was privately discussing with him original offer by eric and his claim that this blade is same from Slough oshigata book example :] Maybe Stefan after our talk changed description? Check please yourself with book as there was difference but it could be caused by different angles. I hope that blade is in fact from Slough and in great shape. Original ebay offer was in like september last year but long gone. Oshigata C page 138 if I remember correctly.

I was around then :] thx for all possible info. -
Waki from Marius was nice. 30$ for both: 5. Sotheby's nihonto auction catalogue from 1979 - no one wants it until now. 6. Japanese Swords and Fittings in the Western Australian Museum, George Trotter - 131 pages of great pics! Some saving for shipping and customs :] outbid me guys!

Great example Volker. You acquired one of Moritsugu Norisada works?

@Scogg Sam could you add „盡忠報國” to this thread title? Easier to search for.

Bo-hi and tsuka-ito both with ito quality and wrapping patern are biggest indicators. Offered as original for 2699$ feels like promotion? https://ebay.us/m/EvaCCk
