Thanks for your replies. The polish is unfortunatelly an old one so its quite hard to find the photo angle to see the hada strcture.. But i will do my best! What about mid edo around 1640-1700? And bitchu..?

Not that bad at all...

Hello again, I came across this katana which looked promising so i bought it.. Any thought on this one? Nagasa 66cm Sori 1.5cm Moto kasane 7.2mm Saki kasane 5mm Moto haba 31mm Saki haba 21mm

The blade has/had sashikomi polish.. but it looks like someone went on it again with some untraditional way aiming for the seen mirror like finish.. after that brought back the ha and hamon with kesho polishing... We will start now with the refreshing of the sashikomi polish.. and probably a mei investigation in the shinto, shinshinto era. Will see.. Many thanks for all your kind answers. Will keep you posted if anything nice or intresting comes up.. Regards David

So. The nakago widest kasane is 7.2mm The mune kassane 6.9 or 7mm Some photos attached..

According the difference in gimei and gendai gimei signatures.. Please tell me that mine is not a gendai.. that is probably the only thing i really hope for
-
Rivkin, not so dense at all, Just forgive me for my bad photogarphic skills with my old phone.. other than that it looks like the polish is not a perfect job, it hides a lot of the jigane structure.. at least on the photos.. i have to admit that

Ray, Oli and Lewis.. thanks for the reference mei Although for me they look completely different
-
Of course i have that in mind.. I am currently wondering if a sec. Or third gen. Moriie in the post hatakeda times could possibly have forged the blade and in this case the mei could be so called authentic.. Sure.. not for hatakeda.. You probably saw some mei in your life.. from the nakagos overall appearance.. does the mei match the period when the blade was forged or do you see it as beeing signed later..?
-
Not as i would want to proof that the mei is authentic.. but it is not looking very freshly made.. Or am i completely wrong..
