What type of certification paper is that? Good looking blade and price.

This is JTK (Juho Token Kenkyukai銃砲刀剣研究会) paper. The appraiser is Tsujimoto Masayuki(辻本真幸), he was NBTHK Kyoto Branch Vice Branch Manager.

Still can't really see the hamon that well. Thanks for trying to get more pictures of it. How about under bright sunlight or under a bright light? Let the light reflect down the blade and then try to capture it

I think a better polishing is needed
