This is a very nice samurai wakazashi in overall good condition.  It is in the same condition from when it was brought back from Japan after WWII.  If polished it will be even more beautiful.  The hamon has a very good hataraki/activity that even in the older polish it can be appreciated.  The hada is well forged and comes in mounts.  These are original mounts and are in good condition.  The handle is in an older wrap that is also in good shape and the saya/scabbard is sound and has a very attractive copper end cap.  This blade should go to shinsa and will receive papers as it is from the 1700's.
