Description: Signature: Unsigned(Mumei無銘) Era:About at the end of the Edo period and Meiji periods(1853-1912) Length: 72.8cm (28.66 inch) Curvature(Sori反り) : 1.9cm (0.74 inch) Weight (excluding sheath):about1,058g(37.31oz) Blade pattern(Hamon): Gunomemidare(互の目乱れ) Skin(jigane): Koitamehada-tsumu(小板目肌詰む) Hat(boshi): Komaru-nikaeru(小丸に返る) Construction(Tsukurikomi): Shinogizukuri(鎬造り) Hamon(刃文): Hamon is called ``nie'' or ``nioi'', which is created when the hot sword is soaked in water for tempering, and the composition of the steel changes due to rapid cooling. This refers to the shape of the grilling blade, which is made up of fine particles. The basic shapes are straight blades and random blades, but the shapes are unique to swordsmiths, and there are many different types. Hamon can be said to be created by chance, so no two are exactly the same. Jigane(地金): Jigane is the pattern that appears on the surface of a sword, which is the result of folding and forging the iron that is the raw material for swords. There are straight grain, wood grain, and board grain, and these can sometimes intersect. Boushi(帽子): Boushi refers to the blade pattern on the tip of a sword. Highlights of this sword Although it is an unsigned sword, the blade and metal are in good condition. It is also long, making it an ideal sword for Iaido. A sword of this length and with a carved groove is valuable. You can see this by looking at the swords listed by other sellers.I heard that this sword was previously owned by a master of Muso Shinden-ryu Iaido.
