1 antique World War II Japanese Samurai gendai sword in shirasaya. This gendaito (handmade) sword would make an important addition to any collection.
This sword was made by Murayama KANETOSHI. Kanetoshi was a Rikugen Jumei Tosho smith. This is a fine example of his work.
The blade measures 25 11/16" (65.2 cm) from blade tip to notch in the blade spine. This sword has a visible hada, and was traditionally-made with tamahagane.
The blade has occasional scratches. There are a few nicks towards the tip of the blade--the deepest of which is less than 1 mm in depth. The hamon and boshi are perfectly healthy. This sword will polish beautifully.
