    It may qualify as a 兼用刀 - combination sword : http://ohmura-study.net/210.html

    I suspect this isn't a dress sword, but a proper sword meant for combat.
  3. PNSSHOGUN
    Looks typical of amateur sharpening or cutting of abrasive items.

    While the Mei is certainly ambitious, the blade appears to be a real Japanese sword. The Horimono appear good at first glance but the quality isn't particularly impressive.

    Recall a Gimei sword (can't remember the exact smith) that was attributed as being made by Gassan Sadakazu, it may have been NTHK papered.

    Having some form of required gold membership or one off fee to post sales would at least allow the forum to recover some money on sales. It's only fair you can keep this board running efficiently without worrying about next months bills.

    For comparison:

    The Kinzogan is very crudely executed, suspect this is fairly recent and done for nefarious purposes.

    Odd as it may seem a similar sword came up a year or two ago, good quality early mounts with a 1990's blade made to fit it. No Shirasaya either.

    That's absolutely heartbreaking, prayers going out to his wife and family.

    This is pretty depressing: https://www.aoijapan.com/katana-sun-pu-on-motsu-masamune-honawritten-seal-mark/

    Some further information here, I will clarify that there's no monetary value but there may be sentimental value for your relative. https://www.jssus.org/nkp/fake_japanese_swords.html

    Hello Greg, unfortunately these are all modern low quality reproductions with little to no value.

    The mei is Bishu Osafune xxx (likely Sukesada) and dated 1500's. The mounts are traditional but seem unlikely to have been carried during the war.

    More likely a Fukure.
