paulb Posted July 5, 2021 Report Posted July 5, 2021 Dear All, I have been contacted by a collector wishing to move on some of his collection (a different one to the one previously mentioned). Amongst his swords there is a really beautiful Shinsaku-to but 25th generation Kanefusa. This is an area where I have absolutely no experience and don't know anyone who collects modern blades. However this does look to be a beautiful piece of work by a very competent smith. If anyone is interested please send me some contact details via pm and I will put you in contact with the owner. Details listed below Katana Signature: Nijyu-go dai Fujiwara Kanefusa saku. Heisei 3 nen 11 gatsu kichijitsu. Polished, in a shirasaya. Era: Gendai, the Heisei period. November, 1991. Length 72.5cm. 28.54 inches. Width 3.37cm. 1.33 inches. Curvature 1.6cm. 0.63 inches Shape: Broad mihaba, thick kasane and longish kissaki make a good shape. Horimono: Bo-hi is carved on the both sides of the blade. Jitetsu: Jinie and chike appear on the itame-hada.

b.hennick Posted July 5, 2021 Report Posted July 5, 2021 Hi Paul You need to add a price for all sales.
paulb Posted July 5, 2021 Author Report Posted July 5, 2021 Hi Barry, Because of the nature of the previous sale and this one I had already cleared with Brian that I would not be able to give any price information. Normally I would be happy to do so (as I have always done in the past)
ROKUJURO Posted July 5, 2021 Report Posted July 5, 2021 Paul, as it has no price, I would like to take two of them, please! Very nice blade!
