  1. Thanks too all for info and photos. Wish I had a garden , a small one with Japanese theme.
  2. At first glance it looks like the alloy iaito blades.
  3. Nice gardens Thanks to everyone. The wakizashi has this tsuba mounted.
  4. Thanks a lot.
  5. Hi Is this a rice or bamboo motif? I see a Kusarigama on the fuchi.
  6. Im sure I se a faint arsenal stamp? here on my ipad
  7. Ebay is a great place ,if You have done Your homework. I got my friend Ogawa Kanekuni for 89usd.
  8. What kind of sword is it? There is no photos.
  9. Your right, its the same. didnt watch them close enough.
  10. Not the same tsuba.
  11. The pierced tsuba is a fake , IMO. When guntos has pierced tsuba the koshirae is of better quality. Pierced tsubas are the early ones.
  12. All the swords at the lauritz auction has all been messed with and comes from the same seller. They scream ........dont buy me
  13. Poorly done itomaki on the saya. Made recently to look like a tachi.
  14. Got the book some months ago from ebay. Cheap book with lots of great Info. They print it also in us and eu , so no tax/custom fees at all.
  15. Its not Japanese ,but love it. The danish king Frederik the 9th.'s navy epullets. And my favorite Japanese item is this large navy dirk with an old blade by kunihiro.
  16. I go for its a gendaito
  17. Congrats. Yes, the waiting time feels loooong Great wartime smith. Better koshirae ,above standard.
  18. The ito is very poorly done. If I was You, I would get it rewraped by a someone how know how to do it. And yes , it can be done by a westerner
  19. Here in Denmark in the Tøjhus museum ,we have a Japanese sword with a european blade mounted. I have an old book with pictures of it. I look for it.
  20. If its not broken and missing ito ,but just greased/ used ,then dont do any thing with it. A photo would be nice.
  21. Thanks to all for their inputs Im still confused about them
