Comments on: Japanese sword……………………….? https://www.medievalclothing.com/2008/06/30/japanese-sword-2/ Medieval & Renaissance Costumes and Clothing. Mon, 30 Jun 2008 10:27:35 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0 By: Nihontopride https://www.medievalclothing.com/2008/06/30/japanese-sword-2/#comment-17286 Mon, 30 Jun 2008 10:27:35 +0000 http://www.swordsofhonor.com/index-blog.php/?p=108#comment-17286 I have studied Nihonto (Japanese blades) off and on for over 10 years and it is my greatest passion. From the pictures you have provided, it is most likely a “Shingunto” (mass produced army sword) or a mass produced blade that has been oil quenched (Not a true Nihonto) There is a small chance that the blade you hold before you is a “Gendaito” (Modern Art Sword: After the Meiji Revolution, The Art of Japanese sword crafting almost vanished and in later years, weapons were illegal in Japan as they still are today. In order to preserve the art of Japanese sword making, the Japanese sword is considered a symbol of Japan and a sacred object first and foremost, and a weapon second. This allows the craft to continue and the Japanese people can still own a sword, but is registered much like an automobile.) A Shingunto can vary roughly from $ 200 to $ 1,000 and an oil quenched blade from $ 400 to $ 1,500. A traditional Gendaito can vary from $ 1,000 for a blade that has flaws but “may warrant a polish” to a fully restored blade made by a smith who was ranked a “Living National Treasure” fully restored with no flaws in top quality mounts with two “Juyo” papers (One for the blade and the other for the mounts) can very easily sell for over $ 100,000 in a short period of time. In the rare chance it is a traditional blade, it may have what are called “Fatal” flaws and be worth nothing to a collector despite it being a traditional blade. If it is, in fact a Gendaito, that has no fatal flaws, you should take proper care of the blade and learn how to care for it, otherwise it should be given (or sold) to a suitable owner. I know of Numerous websites who can help you with this. If anyone wants to know more about Nihonto, feel free to contact me.

300.00-500.00 if in good condition

Of course, all price values are negotiable to both what you are willing to part with it as a price to what a dealer/individual is willing to buy it for. The item with the scabbard will be worth more than the blade alone to a collector. One site shows a similar sword with a price of 6500.00$ . I would have it appraised by a certified dealer. See the bottom link for the list.

Be very careful to not touch or handle the blade. Oils in your skin will damage the delicate surface. Wipe it with a soft dry cloth and keep it in a dry area.

I’m not sure how much a Japanese sword would be, but i’m pretty sure if you search it on the internet you should find something close to that.
My best guess would be at least $ 1k.
