  1. Says sold did you buy it? https://griffinmilit...army-officer-mounts/
  2. That's just a rating not sword value
  3. It does have nice hada but the pix are blurry and nakago has too much chalk. Google the smith's name and see if the mei match
  4. It is handsome, maybe made for a gun?? If mine I'd remove the two brace and replace with two curved cut outs to house two swords, or one shirasaya and one Koshirae . Or you may have a large daito in a sword bag then just pad the existing brace. Just thoughts.
  5. It's a constellation
  6. Why not just say mimi?? Oh never mind lol
  7. Grey will till you for sure. I'd leave it on the back porch or outside out of the elements.
  8. It will buff right out 😉
  9. Me thinks it's time for another sabaticle, reading grown-ups who's opion I respect feel the need to belittle a new student who is obviously a special needs, only bring them self down to that level, after the first few educated tips ignored why keep trying? As far as my posts being deleted I guess I'm just as curious why , oh I know mine would not made sense if left but when the have they anyway. Not my forum, don't make the rules. Carry-on Shalom
  10. Naw mate my Tsuba don't travel anymore and just fine where they rest
  11. Brilliant, great idea, sad to say our local Kmarts have closed.
  12. You must clean your swords often, going to share where you found a stash?
  13. Yes what I think when I think Uchigatana.
  14. Mike comes and says the sky is falling....then no other word. Maybe delete it served no purpose, just suspect that may fall on different person.
  15. Ed please use post as plain text...hard to read black on background
  16. I was always told a sword to be used with one hand (shorter nakago) Making me think not as long as blade as a tachi, more of O wakizashi. Three sources Yumoto Hawley Nagayama. I'm sure other sources may have different view.
  17. Shalom my members I really don't think rubbing someone's nose it serves any purpose. Especially on Christmas. Very sad indeed. We all started out crawling before we walked. Unless you forgot.
  18. I'd search on our FS thread or noted sellers....ebay is full of pit falls.
  19. First thing that comes to mind, why all different backgrounds of the tsuba. I think he's selling of buyee yahoo auctions or other websites.
  20. Think he's just learning
  21. I think, not sure, what you see is what you get....cut off nakago?
  22. I recommend Robert Hughes 100% trusted He will inform you on the pitfalls of your endeavor. https://www.militaria.co.za/nmb/profile/1318-keichodo/
