Kantei This Just To Era And Den

[Stephen]

If you have seen this please play along so we can see what this is called to.

 

[Kronos]

Sugata por favor.

[Jussi Ekholm]

Stephen, could you at least post the overall picture of the sword so we can see the sugata? And some measurements would also be very helpful.

[Stephen]

ok hang on

 

 

[Brian]

If Stephen doesn't mind...I'll add this.

Gendaito?

[Stephen]

good work Brian, good editing/photoshopping

[Jussi Ekholm]

I don't know about it now that I can guess age by nakago but I must confess if I saw that blade with tsuka on, I would have probably guessed Hizen and mid-late Edo. So I would have been very wrong.

[SwordGuyJoe]

Showa or Heisei work by one of the Yasu's. I don't know that work well enough to guess which.

[Stephen]

give it a few more guesses, it does have torokusho paper

[Caleb Mok]

late Showa...reminds me of a sword i had.

[hxv]

I would guess gendaito, probably Kasama Shigetsugu den.
