Stephen Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 currently on ebay, blade damage but looks like it would be a wowzer in polish, end of fukuoka ichimonji line i believe Quote
Stephen Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 interestingly the moritsugu looks to be cut by same hand that did the moritsugu norisada Quote

Brian Posted November 19, 2015 Report Posted November 19, 2015 I have a Moritsugu Norisada, a lovely Gendaito. Nakago suffered some extensive rusting though, so it looks like a Koto. But I enjoy it, and has some hitatsura. Quote
