Beautiful and vivid hamon and nice Jihada (skin of the blade). Not many words need to see the beauty of this amazing sword. The horimono, the perfect hamon and the great jihada almost perfect made this sword an amazing adition to any profesional collector. Very rare and desirable find a blade with this quality polish in such almost perfect condition. The koshirae is in very good condition too. And amazing piece of art.

The blade is in old japanese polish remaining in good condition, the jihada of the steel is detailed and full of details to appreciate. A masterpiece Worthly a museum and a great addition to any private collection.

Blade is in very good condition due to aging. Not hagire and not fatal damage, of course. This is a japanese weapon so have a real historical value. This is a weapon with centuries, not machine crafted so can be minor movements of saya, tsuka, tsuba, etc. Because of dilatation, humidity, etc. and little damages propers of his age like small rust, scratches, etc.. Sold as is.

An Authentic nihonto japanese sword, difficult to find in Europe, without the consequent costs of importing from Japan or from Japanese sellers, which can increase the price of the sword by up to 30% and a months waiting for shipment and custom paperwork.
