因州住 浜部儀八郎 壽實

 

Hamabe school shinshinto, this guy 壽實 Toshizane is the son of 濱部寿格 Hamabe Toshinori , lived 1777～1846

 

I once saw a 濱部寿格 sword in Ohio, there was a big nick that passed the hamon, so i did not bid on it. but it still fetched 900 dollars, why would anyone pay so much for a fatally damaged sword?

[kirkstott]

which one lived from 1777 to 1846. this sword is in great shape.

[W K Clifford]

the son

[kirkstott]

is he a well know sword maker. and what are the 3 marks on the back ? was this sword machine made or traditional?

[cabowen]

This is a traditionally made blade. The Hamabe shinshinto smiths are well respected and there are fakes.....They usually have a rather spectacular and unique hamon that is often times a dead give away to their work...

[kirkstott]

my grandfather got this sword in Japan at the war. were they making fakes then??

[Mark Green]

Those ugly drilled ana!!!!!! and the aborted ones. Ouch.

 

I would love to see some pics of the blade.

[kirkstott]

here you go i only have these but can get more.

[cabowen]

They have been making fakes for close to 1000 years....
