Translation help on a blade paper

[tyrion67]

Hello,

someone proposes me a blade, which would be provided with this paper.
from what i understand it's a transport or export document (but maybe not?)
do you have any other information on it?

 

thank you in advance,

Hi Jo,

It's a copy of a Japanese registration paper from Shiga Prefecture for a Wakizashi. It mentions the registration number, the sizes and the Mei ('something yoshi?) which is almost unreadable. These registration papers make no judgement on quality or authenticity, and have to be surrendered (deregistered) before a blade leaves Japan.

 

All we know is that this blade is (or was) legally registered at the end of last year in Japan.

Thanks a lot 

 

yes, blade is a wakizashi. From the vendor, Mei is supposed to be  忠吉- Tadayoshi.

 

So, blade was registered in end of 2022 in Shiga, and then get deregistered sometimes after, correct ?

If it was deregistered for export, you would not have the original certificate. If that is with the sword, it was exported improperly, as so many are.
If you don't have the original license, then it was probably done correctly.
