Hey everyone! I was hoping to get your thoughts on the age and value of this katana. To my eyes, it’ looks to be koto. I’m thinking Muromachi or earlier? It has a double habaki, it looks to be osuriage Mumei katana. I have the chance to buy it from the seller. Any guesses on bite value? (Roughly)

Very hard to tell anything from these photos. I can't make out any trace of a hamon and it looks like there is either rust or some other damage to to blade’s edge. Without better pictures, I would pass on this one.

Hi Ronald, 

 

What Charles said: hard to tell much from the photos, hang on to your money and spend it on something where you’ll know what you’re getting. Check out the sales section on here. Good hunting!
