Jumyo Wakizashi Identification Help Request

[PeterS]

Dear Everybody!

 

Please help me to find the smith of this wakizashi.

If i translated well the 2 kanji is "Jumyio".

How old can be this blade?

If i have to get other pix to help please let me know.

 

Thanks in advance for Your help and time.

 

All the best to You.

Peter, 

 

can you provide the measurements? Also, a picture of the boshi would be very helpful. Thanks

 

My first thought would be shinto.

[PeterS]

Dear Marius!

 

First of all, thanks for the fast replay!

The measures are:

- nagasa 48,4 cm (19.06")

- moto haba 2,7 cm (1.06")

- saki haba 2,1 cm (0.83")

- sori 1 cm (0.39")

 

 

Here is two pix about the bohi (i can't make better pix, sorry).

 

Please let me know if i have to give you anything else.

 

Thanks for your help and time.

All the best to You.

Momoyama/early shinto. There were a couple of Jumyo but you could probably find some oshigata to narrow it down.

[Marius]

Thanks for the additional info... 

 

Well, from your pics it is hard to see anything, but the "polish" has been done by an amateur, that much is sure. 

 

I stick to my shinto call.

[PeterS]

Dear Marius!

 

Thanks for Your help and time!

 

Yes, the polishing made an amateur.

 

Thank you very much again for everything.

All the best to You.

Dear James!

 

I tried to find oshigata. I found a picture in the Fujishiro book vol. shinto.

The mei same as there the Jumyo in the Tenwa era. But it's not sure. Just i think.

Thanks for your help.

All the best to You.
