Hello Everyone,

 

I was informed this would be a good site to post these pictures to and seek additional information.  I have a sword that was given to me by a family memeber.  I posted these pictures on Reddit and the overall response was this is a nihinto blade.  The tang is not signed.  Any information or pointer on who or where I should contact to get additional information and have this item appraised would be greatly appreciated.

where in Michigan are you located? I live in Toledo but get up to Michigan at times. If we can help on line that is great, if you need someone to look at it in hand maybe we can get together. it is clearly nihinto, being unsigned it is hard to say exact age, etc

Hard to say regarding age, other details etc without photos of overall shape and due to condition of blade

 

Genuine nihonto, likely has been shortened in the past (known as suriage) I think
