Thanks, i did ask some better pictures. Do you think is a real 500 year old blade?

Whats your opinion about this Wakizashi? Place of the Habaki looks a little strange to me. http://www.marktplaats.nl/a/antiek-en-kunst/antiek-overige/m935838410-antieke-japanse-arimitsu-wakizashi-500-jaar-oud-new-polish.html?c=80906a7f13ccf514b11788e5504db095&previousAction=asqSent

I removed the leather wrap, the laces where to far gone and i couldn't save them. I put the wrap in a leather softener. 3 old iron tires and one new are wrapped around the Tsuka. I handmade a "mekugi" and made a real tight fit cause the Tsuka never has to come of again. Now some new leather laces and try to rescue the wrap.

Thanks for the response, i want to place a mekugi so i have to peel the leather wrap.

Any tips how to remount the Tsuka??
-
I was pretty sure the koshirae was real, i took a gamble on the blade. Glue removed. The blade fits perfect in the Saya.

Arived today, bought for 275 dollar. Little bit disappointed cause the Tsuka is not mounted with mekugi. I think somebody took of the Tsuka to look for a signature and glued it back!!??? How to fix this problem, i think i have to remove the leather of the Tsuka. But first the main question, is it a Gunto or a fake?? Total length in Koshirae is 37 inch. Here some pics.

Yes, i'm glad i didn't make the Ideal payment. I reported this looser.

Hello Ron, this stinks, i could only pay with Ideal and no pick up.
-
The seller send me a link to pay with Ideal, what is very strange for this auction site. I asked him if I can pick up the sword . Till now no response from the seller.
