please put swords in Nihonto and fittings here. maybe take a breath as you can overwhelm with all you have, and looks like your sending some to ebay. Most here help to learn not to sell.

blade up tang down

Once more Nihonto reins supreme!

Todd You anywhere near Tampa Fla?

Ask first before you jump in.

we need to know how it was stated in the auction, wording is everything, if stated ww2 tanto then you can and should get your money back, if just like knife or tanto...it might be a push.

NO DEAL!!!

to the left for peace in the house, to the right ready to war...or something like that, problem is to the left one does not show the kozuka

Well done sir

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 0455046568 any members in Fayetteville, NC ? need to be to pick up this lot. so what do ya think, looks like alot of problems but ya never know, late war mounts may have a Nagamitsu? live close by maybe do a go thu? Deal or NO Deal?

two Nobumitsu in Slough, the Showa-gifu looks close to yours. edit to add, Hawleys small blue book says he was a student of Katsumitsu, it also says Katsumits was Teacher at Natl. Tech. shc. Id not look for this being more than showato.

id like to see the side in question in the same light as your last pix.

IMHO its the last book of all that one should buy.

what's this lower price imply? being the books were starters, less new students? maybe the struggling economy? if its less wanting to learn about nihonto is it or will it dwindle down to just a few new students a year. With the news of the Tampa show going to the wayside and less newbies does it have a chance dying out in the western world? who will carry the torch?

In hope that money i have coming in would be here in time for this book watch on ebay, i was wondering how members feel about the book market? I see that bidder g**y got more than a few at what i think is really good prices. Afu's books doing the best, i can only wonder where id been if i got to bid on the fujishiros koto shinto books. doubt that price will come around again. anyway if your interested. http://completed.shop.ebay.com/tsubadub ... 283&_rdc=1 g**Y is that you Grey? lol

John was spot on. WTG the pix
