The bright sunlight might have changed the colors a bit.
Please let me know if any additional pictures are needed.
Thanks again,

It appears to be a gendiato or older ,hand made blade , in higher grade mounts
May we have some more photos of the blade?

It appears to be a shin Shinto blade
May we have photos of the nakago ,tang, these will help confirm its age
