You are right. The offer the seller gave was attractive though... I need to be calm lol. Do people generally shy away from smith with very little information? I'm a newbie newbie

Thanx a lot, that's the same guy! The signiture calligraphy from ur reference does resemble the ebay one but those characters are etched slightly differently. I'm no expert though, I guess it's legit? But the ebay one was made before the smith was given permission to use the mon marking?

I found this late Edo period sword on Ebay that is signed by Sanjo Munechika (三条宗近). I know Sanjo Munechika as a very famous smith from the Heian period, but couldn't find anything about this "late Edo Sanjo Munechika". I'm kind of confused and wonder if this sword is legit. Someone please educate me on this, would really appreciate any feedback. here is the Ebay link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/314058081007
