Looks like a nice decent shinto bizen katana to me.

WW2 Japanese officers sword Yoshishige)

@Steve The kikusi ba seppa should be turned to. The blossoms must be outside not inside. The flatside of the seppas must look allways to the tsuba. But is see the problem here. The sword is refitted with different seppas. Thats the reason to why it didn't fit correctly.

that way

Joseph could we see the boshi and the blade in a normal picture?
-
looks all round no yokote, no kissaki, no lines. It looks like hamon runs out. Make another picture.

@Steve That assembling looks something wild and not correct.

I think it is really a replica. The blade looks like a zinc alloy blade and the fittings are very low quality.

No longer interest?

I had the same feeling but I'm not sure about the nakago. Hope he will take some better pictures.
-
@Bruce can you move that thread to the nihonto section for more audience on the blade?
-
Better blade pics are needed.
