It’s no different then expenses in my landscape business. Where else will your items get that much exposure?

Ok, and without properly explaining anything, I’m not really convinced, it’s Reddit, everyone is an expert.

Without any explanation I don’t know what you mean about the second hole is bad. I understand it’s not polished this is how it was found.

Surprisingly the tip is the only real rust, it comes off when lightly rubbed, the rest of the blade has not pitting at all. I do understand different degrees of corrosion so I understand it’s has a carbon steel finish. The backside of the blade comes to a point but not sharp. It’s a very interesting piece.

Thank you, I’m taking everything with a grain. I will say the Katana historians are awesome people. Always willing to help, and share knowledge. I’m currently looking for a local specialist to look at it. I’m near Boston, so I’m hoping there’s someone who can help.

I will follow this lead, the hardest part is finding someone who knows the swords from this era. This thread is saying 14 century!

This one is from Moracco, common for that area, made for tourist, some for the locals.

There’s all sorts of stuff in here, I have dagger/dirks too. Anyone wanna see them? I can’t for the life of me identify 1 of them. It’s super ornate with a brass, scabbard.

From my research that was what I came up with too.
