Special Order
Japanese WW2 sword by Amahide.  This fine antique Japanese sword would make an important acquisition for any collection.
This sword bears the inscription on the nakago ‘
Commemorating 1941 Departure to the Front — Made for Nagata Chihiro
’.
Signed by the smith ‘Amahide Fukuda of Seki — 1941’.
This is a traditionally-made sword—note the complex hada/grain.  This sword was made with Tamahagane (Japanese sand steel).
The blade measures 26 13/16" (68.2cm) from blade tip to notch in the blade spine.  As mentioned, this is a traditional gendai sword--there are no arsenal or Showa stamps on the nakago.
The hamon is
very
complex—this is a exceptional sword.
Condition:
This sword is in excellent condition.  The blade has occasional smaller nicks and an occasional spot of micro-pitting.  The hamon and boshi are
perfectly
healthy.
