harvg Posted July 13 Report Posted July 13 Recently acquired what katana. Came in much nicer condition than the pics indicated, so very happy with that. It is signed, but I was hoping to get some opinions without first being biased by the mei. Overall length 34 1/8" Nakago length 6 7/8" Sori approx 9/16' Best Regards Harvey Gallant 1 Quote
Rivkin Posted July 13 Report Posted July 13 Certainly looks like Edo period and can be Kambun-shaped (1660-1670). I will be frank saying the quality is most likely average. Quote
Chord Posted July 14 Report Posted July 14 I am not that knowledgeable - but I would be ecstatic to acquire a blade like that myself. Nicely shaped and pleasing hamon. 1 Quote
harvg Posted July 23 Author Report Posted July 23 Mei reveal: Dewa Daijō Fujiwara Kuni- (presumeably the last character of "Michi" was cut off) Thoughts on whether the mei is genuine? Quote
