Hello,

 

i need 2 x screw for a late '44 tsuka.

I didn't know the exact measurement but i think the measures in the picture will fit.

 

 

 

Thanks

I just left my friends house and he has these.. I can ask sizes if interested!

[Brian]

 

For sale?

[Shamsy]

Please add me for a pair if they are for sale (I'll take 2 or even 3 pair but will see who else needs some rather than be greedy).

Begs the question - what happened to the swords????

 

BaZZa.

The price is a little...optimistic.... imho.

But I am sure there are people with a far greater budget than myself...thanks though Matt.

Without knowing the price; supply and demand as they're high in demand and low in supply despite just being screws.

These screws are possible to make out of a old iron screw. Just shape it and rust it.

the owner of the screws told me he wants $100 per set...... i guess i undersold the ones i had, Chris posted and asked and i had 2 and sold them for about $40 (sorry Brian but as he started the post and asked i let him have them)..... now ends i up i need a couple, strange how that works

[Shamsy]

Ah.... take me off the list then! As much as I love original, not at a unreasonable cost.

Hey Mark

you helped me and i say thank you

The price was $45 inkl. delivery. If that is cheap or not is a personel decission.

 

$100 for a pair is total crazy. But on other hands when i look on ebay, the price for sarute is the same madness.

[pcfarrar]

I need a couple too but not willing to pay $100....

[Jiro49]

Im trying to get him to be more reasonable on these but... I will continue to work on him!

From a metal worker's point of view they are not so special at all. I have seen an original from an officer's dirk made of brass, though. There is usual metric M4 thread. The bolts are made with big crest clearance. So nothing precise. 100USD is really nonsense, 40USD is about reasonable price. Good metalworker with a lathe and a milling machine can make these for much less. I can make them including patina but don't have a lathe. To adjust old bolts won't work because these have no normalized measurements and would be lmost impossible to fasten them into a lathe chuck anyway.

 

I let you know when I have access to a lathe or buy one.
