Hi, Found only 6 koto Bizen Munemitsu, but i've not found an oshigata with Bishu Osafune Munemitsu, but you certainly know this kind of mei is synonymous of kazu-uchi-mono.

Hi, From Fujishiro koto hen.

Hi, Guido, yasurime are sujikai. About Generations, i think you know that several worked at the same time (for sample you have a gassaku from shodai and nidai Hisamichi). If it's shoshin? I have not the knowledge (and sufficient samples of mei) to be purely affirmative or negative. The way of engraving looks similar, but i'm embarassed by the location of the mei and the kiku mon style of engraving.

Hi, I think the sword shown above is not from the nidai but from the sandai who was the second brother of shodai Tekai Nobuyoshi and signed (among others things) Echizen no Kami Minamoto Rai Nobuyoshi 越å‰å®ˆæºæ¥ä¿¡å‰. He also use the ji ichi just below kiku-mon(after 1688). Moved from Kyoto to Osaka, he was active between 1655 and 1703 the nidai (son of shodai) was active between 1673 and 1703 in the Kyoto area. Signed: (Kiku) Yamashiro no Kami Fujiwara Nobuyoshi (èŠç´‹) 山城国藤原信å‰.

hi, I think it is a misunderstanding here, Isidro, When you see "For iaido" that means the blade has not enough artistic qualities ot too much flaws, but is is usable for practice (iaido or battodo or tameshigiri) These blade are real nihonto and can have paper. In Japan the term iaito is used for both alloy blades and shinken.

Hi, According Roald and Patricia Knutsen in the book Japanese spears, this kind of yari is called "UEKAMA-JUMONJI-YARI". Always according this book, CHIDORI-JUMONJI-YARI is a yari where the main blade is flanked by two side blades, each downward drooping and having small pointed kissaki, suggesting bird's clawed feet.
