Hi Tom, o-suriage but not mumei, Tsuruta san raks this jo saku and the blade is in the wakizashi price range.

Hi Tom, Katana is Tachi mei ( ura mei) , o-suriage is not common, and for that price it's really a bargain.

Ō-suriage is *always* mumei. But the relevant sentence in the item description is probably a copy-and-paste error, it looks ubu to me. In any case, it is neither mentioned on the Japanese page, nor in Mr. Tanobe’s sayagaki.

 

Bargain? I wonder why it's still for sale after more than 4 months on the website ... maybe because the -wara (-hara) of Fujiwara is missing ...?

2.  The survival of Japan's music rests on artificial ivory
