swords opinion request 3

[sencho]

This is a wakazashi sized sword.

 

Thanks in advance for any opinions.

Maybe something around Kanbun (1661) age wise based on shape, but it looks like it might be shortened so that’s a guess. Can’t see any hamon or hada so your guess is as good as mine.

I agree with John's thoughts. It looks to be early Shinto period. I think I can see some hamon in the pics, and blade appears healthy enough to take a polish. Need to see it without habaki to help with that call. Just like #2, in its current condition, it is not worth much being an unsigned, out of polish blade with no koshirae or shira-saya.

I'm back in UK next week to I will pop over and take pics of the Koshirae. It does have complete set, but most parts need attention too.

 

Will post pics on this thread when I get back there.
