Sword12
Katana blade no-signature within mount
Blade length 73.6cm, thickness at the base 7mm, width 3.1cm
The blade is originally no-signature. It looks from 15-16th century. The
blade quality is good, but hard to find out the school or the smith who
made it.
Steel has a wood grain layer pattern.
Hamon is made of small particles. It is bright. And it makes well ordered
gunome pattern. Utsuri also appears, but not very clear.
The polishing is old. It is not clear if it is the classical style or the
modern style. Anyway, it is so honest that you can study the real face
of the blade.
Tang
It is originally no-signature. But the work is very proper and skillful.
Habaki is gilt copper. It is a good work.
Mount
It is nice. And It is a good sample what good mount in Edo period is.
