Opinions on this Komonjo Wakizashi

[CNS_44]

How’s it going all,

Komonjo has a few wakizashi up for bid right now on eBay and this one is supposedly signed 以南蛮鐵於武州江戸康嗣 Motte nanban tetsu okeru Bushu Edo Yasutsugu, and on the reverse: 武州於浅草胴落山野勘十郎 (Yamano Kanjuro cut across torso, at Asakusa in Musashi Province.) To me the Mon also looks kinda weird but that’s for more experienced people to decide I’m assuming it’s  a gimei but would just like to know what others think.

Thanks,

chansen

You are almost certainly correct - the general rule of thumb for Komonjo blades is, if they aren't papered, assume they won't paper, at least in their current state.

Yeahm, a Komonjo listing is considered origami to gimei at any price under market value
