      Some additional photos would be helpful.

      Photos of the entire sword in scabbard and then one of the entire blade would be helpful. Also a close up of any markings.

      I would love to collaborate with you on this sword. I have one simular to yours (same background design pattern but different markings/pictures) and am also doing research on it. Can you take more detailed pictures of the entire sword and any markings or emblems/designs. Would love to compare yours to what I have.

      I forgot to mention that through the research I have done so far, my sword if from Japan. I'm still researching which provodence. I'm still trying to get some translation done on the writing on the sword. Will update you with any info I find on mine as it might help you as well.

      Thanks
