正十年 Tenshō 10 (1582)

 

Thank you very much. Would you suggest I submit this to the NTHK since it is a dated Sukesada? I appreciate it your thoughts in advance!

 

Cheers.

Nice hada and nice hamon are not qualities I would normally associate with kazu-uchi mono. 

Signature and date inscribed on the sword are also not something I would associate with kazu-uchi mono.

Kazu-uchi mono are typically unremarkable blades. However, there is a dealer in Japan who was describing one of his authenticated and dated swords as "kazu-uchi mono". It seemed wierd to me. There was a bit of discussion on this forum about it. The thread below isn't the one I was thinking about, but it may be helpful.

The one thing I can say for sure is... you need to show the whole sword if you want to get some opinions on it.

Good evening, 

 

Best shots I can use. Poorly polished but almost original gasane. All opinions welcomed!

 

Cheers
