The bla...de represents the opportunity to own a historic Shintowakizashi, ca. 1600s, by the famous swordsmith Mutsu Kaneyasu in high end Shin Gunto mounts. The blade and themountings are in Excellentcondition. The sword has a blade length of 21.25 inches (54 cm). The bladefeatures a well-grained itame hada.The hamon is a Soshu-style gunome midare ofrolling peaks that is present the length of the blade through the kissaki whereit ends in a maru boshi. The hamon featuresa deep nioi guchi with prevalent nie. There are activities like ko-ashi, koichigaiba, and nie hotsure in and along the hamon.The tang is signed Mutsuno Kami Kaneyasu and slightly shortened. Kaneyasu was a famous swordsmithfrom Settsu working in the mid-1600’s. His swords were sought out for theirhigh quality and he was known to sign the kanji on his swords backwards, atrait present on this sword. He is ranked highly at Jo Saku by Fujishiro. Interestingly, the nakago-jiri on this sword has been converted to a screw indicatingit was previously mounted in Kyu Gunto mounts for the Russo-Japanesewar.The mountings are Type 98 ShinGunto and in Excellentcondition. The tsuka is silk-cord wrapped with cherry blossom menuki. There is littleto no fraying. The tsuba is classic WW2 with four accompanying metal seppa andone extra leather seppa. The saya (scabbard) is black lacquer with a leatherweathering cover. The leather cover is supple and well-aged, retainingroughly 85-90% of original finish.The blade is in Excellentcondition. There is one very small micro nick along the edge, a few small spotsof rust, and a few scratches along the blade’s length. There are no major flawslike hagire.Given the condition, the highquality craftsmanship, the reputation of the swordsmith, and history of thesword, I think this piece would be an outstandingaddition for a collector of WW2 militaria or Japanese swords.Terms and additional items: This item is original and not aknockoff or fake.
