  1. Dale that was the tsuba of Thierry Bernard in that thread. The picture of my posting was from the auction house Zacke. The bonhams picture is maybe the same tsuba but the coloring of the picture is total different.
  2. Hello Stefan it's a great sword and in great condition and well worth the price. I would want to buy it, but honestly, would you buy a sword now if the Federal Office for Civil Protection has been advising you for weeks to build a nuclear shelter and stock up on supplies? I have deep pockets but no room for a bunker! Maybe many collectors feel this way?
  3. Is it worth? Others would say hey its damned old. It was the time of the third crusade.
  4. @Bruce there is only the mei on the nakago. No marks, no stamps, no number.
  5. Good Morning Bruce. I take a look this evening after work.
  6. The shapes of my gendai collection. All different.
  7. Thanks a lot. Really cool.
  8. strange. How does it hold together. Is it possible to see a picture from the Mimi?
  9. Is this one tsuba🤔
  10. Both are nice late Edo/Meji Tsuba. I like the iron tsuba. Can't read the signature clearly. Well done.
  11. I put my swords together in one picture to compare the shape. Its on my site. There is no such thing like a standard. Every sword is different.
  12. Buba job mixed assembled sword. Modern chinese replica looks much more better an rhe wall
  13. Krystian gave me better pictures of the sword. Its really nice and a good textbook example of the Bamboo Leaf Pattern.
  14. Bamboo leaf themed civillian gunto. Krystian sold it. Blade is made by Kaneharu. First time to see that themed gunto in such a good condition. The blade looks very good preserved and the fittings are stunning. Only the saya doesn't look original.
  15. I don't think that tassel is correct to that sword.
  16. Noshu Kanetoshi - from a first glance without a book to check it.
  17. I see nothing on your pictures. Why they are golden? The real color is important to judge a blade.
  18. Google for kyokujitsuki. It was invented 1894 Its a symbol of nationalism. So the rising sun seppa are products of showa not older.
  19. Sold as original Type98 The good thing is they mark it as fake.
  20. Nice find. Is there a canvas sheet for the saya under the saya leather?
  21. I think its a smiling monkey. 😃
  22. Maybe someone who thought finding the mother of type98 koshirae and type95 blade swords. 😁
  23. Its a nice showa-to.
  24. I allways want to find out when i see a crude katana that it could be a korean hwando. What is the point that makes a difference? https://www.mandarin...ean-ceremonial-saber
