Musashi Daijo Tadahiro signed Uchigatana

[jdawg221]

Selling an uchigatana with signature of Hizen Koku Ju Musashi Daijo Fujiwara Tadahiro. Mei looks decent and the blade itself is definitely mainline hizen, but it is not papered. Has very nice nashiji hada, incredible nie-deki very typical of mainline hizen works. Discussed the sword with others and if its not gimei we think that it is probably a dai saku work from masahiro or another smith that made swords for shodai tadayoshi during his later years. Personally like the sword but I mainly collect nihonto in koshirae and do not feel like going through the effort or time to get koshirae made for this piece.
