I'm sorry, I didn't see this post. Actually, many years ago, I had heard about the counterfeit products made in China that almost obtained an appraisal certificate from NTHK. This might be a successful version. It seems that in the past few years, Japanese counterfeit merchants were accustomed to applying for appraisal from ordinary institutions like NTHK. This rather strange Kikusui emblem and the inconsistent inscriptions make it hard for me to believe that it is genuine. Expand 1 Quote

Some don't hold any organisation in particularly high regard when it comes to Gendai, as there have been many cases of rather suspect swords receiving papers in the past. Perhaps there was other supporting provenance we are unaware of that unequivocally proves this was owned by Captain Ariga.... https://www.invaluab...df2322bbd8796b8eddf2 There is further discussion here: Expand Interesting John! I agree about papers for gendai blades being unreliable and personally I feel that, if there was corroborating evidence for this being the captain's sword, it would've been sold (or at least mentioned and referenced) at the same auction. Once again, I see the signature clearly intruding into the mekugi-ana and the other John (@John C) pointed out at the time how clumsily the kiku was engraved. Regardless of its paper and how much it went for, I would say that this is a fake. 3 Quote
