Winchester Posted January 22, 2023 Report Posted January 22, 2023 Friends, Thanks in advance. I am interested in purchasing and like it. ID: KAN182 Province: Yamato Era: Kanbun (1661-1673) Active Period:1661-1673 School: Tegai Thoughts on the piece? Blade is near mint, lovely hamon no condition issues. Koshirae in excellent condition. Only a few pictures, sorry. Quote
Ray Singer Posted January 22, 2023 Report Posted January 22, 2023 Brian, it is difficult to provide feedback without showing the actual blade and specifically to show the nakago. There were several Kanemune, are you sure it is that specific smith? Show clear photos of the piece so that feedback can be provided. Best regards, Ray 1 Quote
Winchester Posted January 23, 2023 Author Report Posted January 23, 2023 Hi Ray, Thank you for feedback and willingness to help this new collector. I was unable to get more photos in person at no fault of the seller or mine. I was able to get the sellers number though and the plan is to stop out over the next few months to review the collection. I was wondering if the quality was of particular interest or exceptional, relative to the opinions here from more experienced collectors. I know it is not much to work from, photo-wise, but it was elbow to elbow and tons of people/traffic. Seller is a militaria collector and I have about a year to review before he is auctioning/liquidating his estate. Believe he is 80+ years old. Quote
