Kyoto-13 Posted June 15, 2024 Report Posted June 15, 2024 Hey Everyone!! I recently acquired this sword and would appreciate any help from the community to either translate / authenticate what I purchased or disclose anything that might seem incorrect. Please see sword description below. Signed: "Bakufu samurai Kawai Hisayuki, age 82, made this jointly with son Hisakazu" and dated 1867. NBTHK Hozon Token paper dated 2014, NTHK Kanteisho dated 2019.

mywei Posted June 16, 2024 Report Posted June 16, 2024 Hello I'm a little confused - have you attached photos of a different blade? The certificates are for a Bakumatsu era( Keio 2) blade by Bakufushi Kawai Hisayuki, made at age 82 jointly with his son/heir (different on each certificate 久数 Hisakazu in nbthk, and 久正 Hisamasa on the Nthk cert) Also I don't see any bonji horimono on your photos even though it's in the description...
