Good evening again, thank you all for your replies. I wasn't concerned with the value of the blade per se, I just wanted to make sure it was not a fake blade that had a fake MEI on it. I am attaching certain pictures provided by the seller. I hope they will clarify some of the queries you raised ROKUJURO. Thank you all once again for your responses, it is much appreciated. @Ken, I will be reading up, you can be sure of that, ty, I know I am a neophyte in this arena, but I look forward to making myself more knowledgeable.
Regards Ang
