i know who he is i'm not looking for him i'm friends with him on fb im looking for the person he sold the fittings to. but thank you

pictures of the mounts

i have inquired to see but highly doubted he knows would be lucky though if thier is a chance i still will love them both equally and i think the best thing i can do for that moght be possible is find the missing hanger and have a sword wrack to mount them in for display as im just starting out for collecting

one of them actually is.. or so the seller stated was no mention of the blade just tsunagi like the major only thing he mentioned that the tassel was sold off cause it wasnt in the best of shape

I don't have the money right now but i wanted to see if i could track these mounts down. in January of 2016 i bought a star tamp gendai from a gentlemen named Matt lapoint on Facebook it was in type 3 mounts. the mounts ended up being sold separately and i was wandering if anyone here may of purchased them or know anyone how may of bought them. it was housed in a black leather feild cover not in the best of shape with black type three fittings and lacquered tsukamaki that looks almost red when on camera.

I recently was able to acquire some fittings i'm paying off in December that came with tsunagi in gunto koshirae. My question is it a foolish errand to want to try and track down the original blades that they would of came with? One of them has a surrender tag on with them with information I would like to find more info on the individual that owned it originally but sadly only has a last name on it. I doubt the likelihood of tracking the blades down and displaying them togeher is even a possibility. without is fine I just was curious on the possibility of reuniting the koshirae with their respective blades as i kinda want to keep their history together if even a possibility...

thank you guys trying to find some references and some parts for sale in December for a restoration and much what i have seen on the markets barely reassemble those but they are very nice the type 3 is beautiful must be custom

for collectors if gunto besides the blade what qualifies as high quality

both typically whats seen on high end gendaito type 94 i have looked through ebay and gunto art

Thank you everyone who takes the time to reply and read my post good morning good afternoon and good evening Getting some cash come in sometime in December so i'm looking for some nice higher end shin gunto fittings.
