Saya very rusted in middle section. I oiled it then scrubbed it, by hand, to make it slightly more presentable. It looked like it had come out of a Burmese swamp.

Thanks guys. The hamon is an un-exiting gunome, glimpses of which can be seen in pics. I can't see details of hada. Steel is quite uniform, 'blueish' hue.

Thank you for the input guys. I like this piece alot, but I may pass it on as I was aiming for something earlier when I was studying it pre purchase.
Got me well interested in the Tegai school though...
