Can you help with identification of this v v tired sword.

Hi All

Please see attached images, a mate rescued this sword from an estate auction.

It is obviously in very bad shape but he would love to know more about it, if possible

Can anyone oblige, he put some pictures up on a face book page and some details came back but I have not got the details provided.

I will get dimensions later today off him

Many thanks as ever

Looks very rough with the rust, tip gone and a large hakobore.

Thanks John 

So the smith is  Iyo ju Fujiwara Munesada and sword dates from late 1600's
