    Thank you to all! "The NBTHK Italian Branch was born for study purposes, as written in the constitutive act of the association: http://www.intk-token.it/forum/index.php?showtopic=9476 We will hold seminars and publish about the worthy swords of Italian collectors. There are no commercial or lucrative goals. We will not issue any certificates, for that there is the NBTHK Japanese. Rather, we will try to standardize methods and terminologies to understand internationally." President - FdF

    Sorry Darcy, but was this shinsa for blade and tosogu or only for blade? In that case how do they proceed? They hold it longer and ask opinion to some other expert (for example Tanobe sensei)?

    Thank you Morita san :-)

    Thanks for the sharing! This is the original sword : I think the swordsmiths names in romanji are: Fukutome Fusayuki (福 留 房 幸) and Kōroki Fusaoki (興 梠 房 興)

    Thank you Antti! Ken, maybe you confused me with YOJIMBO.
  22. Keiji
    As they have already written, if shinsa don't pass, a small pink sheet is given, at least for tosogu it is specified whether it is gimei, cast or else. So your agent must give you these "receipts".

    It's amazing Fred, I think this is the right way for the preservation of the Japanese sword, buy books and visit museums with important blades to refine your eye. I know it's very hard. Congratulation! Can you can share more detail and pics about this tanto? Thank you :D

    Hello Bob, please open a new topic for the your sword, I'm a beginner, but we hope to help you ????
  25. Keiji
    I don't win this sword for few $... ???? (you can see this sword before the polish, it's the number 3 in the first post). Now is the time for a new "Indiana Jones and the missing tanto"?
