This is a very well made old sword with many hataraki and a very rich looking ji-hada.  The hada has a milky appearance and is very well forged.  The activity in the hamon is rich looking as can be see in the picture below of the full blade.  The mounts are in great shape also with a newly made lacquered saya to protect the fresh polish.  Over all an excellent old samurai sword.
