Hey Guys,

Was going to post a few photos of one of my latest blades and see how close to the smith people could get from photos alone.
I've taken a few today but am happy to take more.

I'll leave precise measurements off for now

let me know if i've compressed these a little too much, i've tried to keep detail in the blade.

i'll start with these and add more photos as we go

exactly the right period there is a close connection for sure. Different school and different area.

All I can add is my guess is Kanbun era Yamashiro shinto. Not a great guess, but I'm running with it.

 

My apologies for not using the hidden text, still not entirely sure how to make that work from my Android phone.

This is a very good guess, very close in quality and refinement. Different school but right area, think more Osaka den mainstream.

Close to the right level of refinement but stylistically leans away from kyoto to the Osaka den.
