  1. I'm not sure with this. Maybe overcleaned? Fuchi, Tsuba Habaki looks like the others we discussed. No patination. The pictures of the tsuka shows not enough details to judge it. I think it's not genuine.
  2. Wow Ronnie, textbook Sadakatsu. Thanks for showing.
  3. Thomas i wonder about the price. What smith could that be? John, i was feeling the same. could someone read it?
  4. Thats correct Piers. I do exchange from swiss Franken to USD. The worth was 670000 Franken. Benken ZH: Antikes Samuraischwert eingeschmuggelt - Blick
  5. What we know from BZAG - Seller was from Stuttgart - Sword was made 1353 - worth 698.408,00 USD Consequences: + 56.289,60 USD vAT + 833.920,00 USD penalty order (for the Swiss businessman) + 6.567,12 USD for the smuggler New worth of the sword: USD 1.595.184,72
  6. Slough says rating 1 Mio Yen for Yasunori as Jean said.
  7. Looks good to me. Nice condition.
  8. Its a simple late Edo period wakizashi iron tusba for a poor ashigaru samurai.
  9. The koshirae should be a Type3 not Type98. The new mekugi ana was drilled trough the mei.

  12. Thats a really nice sword. Is the ito lacquered? The sword looks great.
  13. I dont think that was a detailed horimono. It looks more like rough amateur made. Edit: I took a second look on that horimono. It was detailed and flat polished. You are right! Under photoshop you see it. very sad indeed.
  14. Post 2 - 4 smaller pictures thats enough for showing.
