I like it Stephen congrats. Here's mine I may have shown you via pm before I bought via Nmb years ago.

Help identify please. WW2 bring back?

Definitely Chinese fake sorry. -
Not a huge fan of using Nihonto for tameshigiri personally but you have some lovely blades and it is great to see so much support of modern smiths .
-
Lots of drooling here. Very very nice, thanks for sharing Chris and John.
-
I agree. The only thing I like better on the second one is the bigger nodes on the same.
-
Congrats, nice looking sword. You may want to search the board on the use of uchiko. Its getting more common to use micro fibre instead as the uchiko gradually scratches the blade surface and dulls polish.
-
Excellent package all round. 1st sword?
-
Its Nihonto collector Pete. An explanation would be nice. If anything I think its only hurting his sales. Down voting good deals for nice items like this is just silly. I don't care if my comments are down voted for speaking the truth , water off a ducks back.

The blade is a nice example of 1st gen. Would be nice to have with my 2nd generation if I had the spare funds. -
Its the same person that down voted the book sale. Mr Nihonto collector please explain.
-
Whats with the negative reaction with no explanation? Seems very petty.
-
These negative reactions like this seems very inappropriate without explanation. Not just here but with another tsuba sale too.

I've messaged him a few times over the last few years and he always plays dumb or the victim. Today I messaged him about the ka bar and told him there's a lot of discussion in the antique weapon community about his dodgy sales and he said he knows people aren't happy with him and he's ok with it. Low life .

Another great find Dale. I haven't seen the double version either, very unique.
-
Thanks for sharing your lovely tsuba collection with us Bob. Some beaties there. The tsuba made by Ford is great. When was it made?

Hi I'm sure if you contact Tomoko she would be happy to sell outside of ebay.

Heres my Nobuiye tsuba with 2 cord ana.

G'day Mark that's very nice thanks mate. I enjoyed meeting you and the everyone in Boxhill and hope to catch up for another meeting when possible.

Gunome , not quite toran from the pics. A little too aggressive with the hadori.
-
Hi John Im definitely keen to see this after restoration. I hope you choose the best possible experts that you can afford to fix the koshirae and a professional polisher to do the blade. The tip should be fine after a good polisher is finished with it. Good luck and please keep us up to date with it all.

To buy or not to buy, that is the question

Congrats Bob nice find. -
I like the tsuba a lot.

Thanks Piers that makes sense I will think about doing that. I have matt black paint to use. Thanks Uwe , its not easy with all the lockdowns and not being allowed to work but I will make it work. Weve had a 5 day lockdown here that started less than 2 hours after my son was born so atleast I've had extra cuddle time huh.
