  1. What I always appreciated in finding in the sword the sepa size to fit the front and the back of the tsuba. That is to say both would on the tsuba next to saya But one would not slide all the way up the nakago to tsuba. Usually a sign that they were made for the sword and tsuba

    I never paper anything unless it was something really spectacular The other side, I think I'll make a bid on it nothing to write home about but like dragons as you guys know and I'm pretty sure it's not a repo I could be wrong nowadays

  6. Rick all too often we have members who are easy to jump to conclusions I think it's good looking nakago please show the rest of the blade. Does it have koshirae or just bare blade. Please tell us how long it is to
  7. Mr RR may I call you R? You come to the premiere sword study group asking about a katana which it cannot be because it's too short then you were told that it is a fake not even a good copy and you get upset saying how do you know, we have spent many years learning time and money to tell the difference. I hope your heart is not broken when you find out it is false sword. On this website there is many listed sellers you should search those websites and see what a real sword looks like. Best of luck Stephen
