    On ebay, some days, you are the bird. Some days, you are the statue. But, much more often than not, you are the the statue... Hoanh

    If I were you, I would post in the “Want To Buy” section. Much better examples, guaranteed to be nihonto, better prices as well. Don’t get burned on your first purchase. Hoanh

    1400USD for all together, then yes, it's worth a gamble. 1400USD for each, then definitely no for me. Hoanh

    Chris, I had a papered Ko-Katchushi tsuba. A little larger than this one, but is comparable in aesthetics (my aesthetics). It did cost me 4-4.5x more than this one, though. I would call this one "tosugu bargain of the year." Hoanh

    Mark, I was bidding on the Gendai Toko Meikan - always wanted this book. Many thanks, Hoanh

    I had the most disappointing experience with komojo on ebay. I was bidding on a book listed by him with a set max bid. At closing, "someone" outbid me by $1. Five minutes after closing, I received a "second-chance" offer from komonjo for my exact max bid. Coincidence? I think not! To protest shill bidding, I am not going to bite this offer. Hoanh

    May I get help with translation, please? This is a bit tough for me. Spent a lot of time looking up kanji but not getting too far. I can only make out: ??da Masahide ??toshi (maybe). It's dated Showa 50. Many thanks. Hoanh

    Real tough choice!!! Hoanh

    Learned something new. Didn't know they had Showa stamp back in the 17th century. Hoanh

    It also has a beautiful vivid utsuri, too, but I haven't figured out how to capture it on camera. Need to sharpen my photography skills. Hoanh
