No problem Tony. Its only my opinion.
-
I would not rest a sword in a tachi kake. Better is to store it on a normal kake if you want to present the sword.
-
Great experts in Catawiki. Does anyone know the fools?

I know Sabbah from Facebook he is well trained in nihonto. Maybe its false translated? -
Neil it's allways impressing to look on your swords. The last one is beautifull and i wish i had one of these late ones.
-
Thats true Jesse, but i'm fascinated to see such quality and details for $30. I would like to see chinese blade e.g. from simon lee fitted with that kind of replics. Such a sword would look good in my opinion.

from chinese producers. Frightning. Tsuba $90 (2 x available) sofecoke sword | eBay Stores Hard Times
-
I think it's good Bruce that these are so expensive. The market would overflown if they cost $250
-
Found that picture in google search. The stamp looks similar? From Rich's site is a Tadahiro listet Seki Kaji Tosho 忠広 (Tadahiro) Real Name: 後藤 善三郎 Kato Zenzaburo?
-
It gets more and more interesting. I missed the shadow line above the hamon what is typical for showato. And i think i see the layers of steel and some activity. I don't think its showato. It looks like a nice sword. I didn't find a Tadahiro named Showa Swordsmith in my books. Only the known linage of Tadahiro.
-
Now its clear.
-
Oh thanks Tony. Looks not like a seki stamp. What is it? The blade looks older. High shinogi. Maybe you can make better pictures from the hamon in sunlight to see some details. Interesting purchase.
-
where did you see the seki stamp? I didn't found it. The nakago looks not like a typical showa sword.
-
I found these replica selling in a online swordshop in Netherlands. The details are impressing. Who ever made this knows what he doing. Yasukuni Captain's Gunto - japanisches Armee Schwert (samurai-katana-shop.nl) From the same shop
-
I didn't have use a tag Brian. I only see it. And this sword isn't fake or I'm wrong?
-
Another question why is this thread pinned as FAKE. When you click on the FAKE Pin you see other Threads also pinned a FAKE. I'm a little confused about this.
-
For me its fake
-
Its a seki sword Bruce that i saw on a auction plattform and i was not sure if it is gendai or not. But its a showa to, presented in very good pictures. Nothing to follow with for me. I saw the blade only on pictures, no mounts.
-
Sorry i cant say nothing to it. For me it looks like stuff from a mad max movie after the apocalypse. I saw only the crude nakago, thats why i ask for.
-
is this a Japanese sword or some late night emergency version of the islands field repair swat team better than new?
-
Showa-to
-
I want to mention that the gold of the starter Tsuba in this thread is glued not an inlay. If you heat it up with hot water it is away.
-
Sad to hear. I wish him all the best and a good recovery.
-
Christian the mass small pictures reminds me on Alien signs on a UFO.
-
Steve i had the feeling that you are not satisfied with your decission to buy the sword. Its like someone who ordered a new car and 2 days later he didn't want it and search for the hair in the soup.
-
There was on Facebook a thread with pictures were i copied it but it was deleted. No picture of the koiguchi.
