Kajiyama Yasutoshi at catawiki

[Rawa]

This blade is coming back from time to time. September 1940.

As You like those shrine works maybe someone would want to bid on it.

Monouchi is imo badly damaged on both sides.

Hopefully no one here will bid on this. It is certainly not an authentic Yasukuni-to. At best, it is a showato arsenal blade, doctored up with a gimei and frankenstein'd koshirae. i'm sorry to be so blunt, and I don't like to comment on active auctions, but this is one of the worst things that I've seen posted to the group.

There is nothing here even remotely resembling a Yasukuni-To, clearly an oil tempered junker.

So catawiki keeps their standards.

@Scogg could you move this thread to fake’s tab?

 

[Brian]

Sword is not fake, but the description and inscription are fake enough that I think this one deserves a place here.

Experts you can count on 

[Scogg]

My thinking was that the more modern gimei and explicit intention to deceive makes this one dangerous, and worthy of the fake section.

 

Not your everyday gimei.
