There are 10 generations of Owari Masatsune this would be the last 2 they did not get titles and made very thick tanto I have had all the generations the one you showed in the photo was 3rd generation. I am sure this is a complete and original Shin-shinto 9th or 10th generation Masatsune Fred Geyer

I have no Flipping idea who these people are posting the video stuff...yes sword to a lucky person ! Fred Sword good utube and video not so good

Sorry to everyone on the site, I cant take it ...................why do people think they have to say stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, facts people facts , who gives a crap about here say, maybes, could be, well I am not for sure , I have no clue what I am talking about BUUUUUT...... here is my guess to something i know nothing about.....again please give me examples of faking a $650.00 gun show sword ...yes that was the price in the 1970. Faking a great Juyo Bizen blade for 35K yes !! hell it still happens today Cant we take this truly outstanding and impressive educational group of collectors up a few notches so everyone here can learn and move forward in....wait here is the big word…..".knowledge" ok I am done thank you to all for my rant Thank you Fred

Ed I only say things here in "……." in for points of comment and ZERO against you..... when you allow misinformation or made up information and you have nothing good that comes from this...… my points below

yes I agree I did post for comments and also did post in the for sale section at the same time I ask though if a comment is made please also post the reason with NBTHK examples for your comments of concern for education not just "well I think" as we all have them but if not proven they are just fiction comments not educational notes for all to be better and smarter which the reason for this site as I understand it please post your examples so we may see others to study the mei Fred

All, this came from a old collection and have been setting in storge for 12 years after the passing and 30 years of collecting , the reciept that was attached this sword was bought in 1972 I do not believe alot of faking was going on then for what these sold for then. The reason it was posted on the site was to show collectors here a great sword, NEIL …...NOT EVERYTHING IS A SCAM !!! I will 100 percent guarantee this sword will paper if sent to the NBTHK or I will refund the papers cost with sword price if returned in the same condition. Fred
