What is this?

Very strange sword up for auction. Assume the signature is likely guy may as it seems newer than the rest of it and the nakago is weird but can see in one photo that it is apparently authenticly made at least..  No intent on bidding on it just curious as to the shape and nakago

Dear Nick.

 

Relieved to hear that you are not planning to bid, this is horrible!  It is pretending to be a kogarasumaru zukuri by Nagamitsu, the same Nagamitsu who works in the Pearl Garden Chinese restaurant down the road.

 

"Nothing to see here, move along now, move along!"

 

All the best.

Just like 99% of what that auction site has to offer.....Chinese fakes, WWII machine made blades purported to be 16th, 17th, 18th century "treasures", horrible condition, worthless stuff...pluuttttth! {bolwing a massive raspberry}.
