What is this thing where the temperline frays apart?. Sorry for picture quality, this was done using a phone camera in one hand and the sword in the other.

Hi Joseph,

If you are asking about the areas where the hamon is discontinuous, one end dives down and the other rises up and they cross over and under each other, that is koiguchigaiba. This is not a defect; it is a characteristic hataraki of the Yamato Tegai School, and probably others also. Looks good.
