Samegawa Army

[Michaelr]

Hello all. Please see the pictures of the Same Army that I recently acquired. This is the way I received and even though it came with a Generals tassel that looks like it’s been together it’s whole life, I am not calling this a Generals Sword as I have no documentation. It does have a nice MON AND THE SAYA is in great shape. I am looking for some help on the blade and I will also post it in the translation section if I need to. Thank you in advance and hope you enjoy

Michael,

I think it’s Tadamitsu, 忠光, but not 100% sure on first character. Looks like a name on the mon. I’m drooling a bit….

I think you could safely say that its probaly org to the sword.  its in such frail shape it would be very difficult to mix and match.

 

out of interest did you buy this out of Japan??
