NihontoWatchNihontoWatch奈良の旧家からのうぶ出しの一刀で、当店にて柄巻きのみし直しました。 現状では茶色い錆に包まれ、全体の出来の様子は窺い知ることができませんが、窓開けした部分を見ると、匂口明るく冴えた様子が垣間見られます。 樋先は小鎬に迫っており、樋の形状からかなり古い時代の一刀であることが判ります。附属の拵は、縁と目貫が獅子図で揃えられ、二色織りの柄巻きが眼を惹きます。 登録された平成19年の7月に買い取ったものの、研磨工作後に御案内しようと思っていたのですが、研磨諸工作が大変立て込んでいるため、現状のままでご紹介致します。 御購入後は是非とも研磨頂き、保存刀剣鑑定を是非御受審下さい。

The listing mentions papers that aren’t in our records yet. Current NBTHK and NTHK shinsa papers are the independent check we rely on, so it’s worth asking the dealer for a clear photo of the certificate. — Hoshi

The Muromachi period (1392 to 1573)

We could not find an authenticity certificate on the seller’s listing. Japanese swords and fittings are normally papered by the NBTHK (or the NTHK). Without one, the attribution is the seller’s own assessment and has not been independently verified — treat it with caution and ask the dealer about certification before buying.
As a rule we do not accept returns, except when we have sent a different item from the one ordered or when there is a significant discrepancy between the description and the item. If you wish to return an item, please contact us within 3 days of its arrival and then send it back.
