  3. would not worry about the carving its the least of the worries on this....how about that rust on the cutting edge...no flags there??????? you get taught but you dont listen, seems were wasting our breath...er typing

    Teppo You know I have problems with remembering anything after three hundred years ago also. All seriousness aside, a nice sword in sound mounts. maybe a side shot of the nakago to see the shape and file marks and some pix of the kissaki, in Hawaii? looks like ocean in the background. if so we can guide you to someone who will tell you with one look.
  8. Josh we like links with or teasers lol
  9. is it rust or dried cosmoline/tar? what ever it is needs to come off, adding a great name was done in all eras of war not just ww11 sorry if I confused
  10. nice all away around so far more pix please!!!
  11. Aaron I've seen blades with great names on it in war mounts, I think they were added to the blade to take "in spirit of the name" into battle. It should be keep as is with a clean up of the black stuff and tsuka rewrap as a piece of history.
  12. Think both Brian and myself were cropping and rotating pix Bob, please try to post your pix the correct way if you can.

  16. without bending my neck to far to the right try this link and see if it matches. http://www.geocities.com/alchemyst/kanezane.htmd In F/G the Seki cutlery company paper stamp tells us its most likely a war blade showa to
  17. maybe we need to tell them well start a boycot...that would be a laugh to them id guess ...maybe a mass mailing from all of us. Ive told them each time about this seller....i can fell your pain Tim. wonder if i was start a new account and tried the high bid thingie ...just burns me up!!!
  18. Dan O even though we find mei's that do not match we should not make the Gimi call, thats up to a shinsa team. Id go with the NBTHK for papers. Its a sound sword IMHO one worth keeping and becoming its care taker for your life time.
  19. seen it closed at 2600! ouch! i had not seen the new pix, looks like new ito and new dark patina on the fittings, no hamon blade. doubt hell get his money back.
