I'm fascinated of this fishing tool. It looks very cool. I bet not one Fishing museum in the west have one. When you sent the guns.ru site through google translation. On page 14 of the thread it is explained as eel catching tool. Great find Bruce. Every day i come to the board i learn something new.

Very good Butch, the condition and the quality is perfect. Keep a good eye on it.

Beautifull sword Neil.

Thats a nice sword Bruce. I belive its a real wartime sword, maybe produced but not out given to a officer. The nakago looks like cut of to mark it as a none wartime sword. Very interesting. I like it.
-
This is such a beauty. The looks like an oil painting. Thanks for showing Neil.

Genuine or not. I miss the stainless steel guaranteed stamp too. That stamp is so stupid.

Looks good to me. Nice one

I remember we saw here another piece with the same styled signature. -
Great find Peter. The blade looks complete. Boshi is not broken. Sad that they have no better pictures in that video. The other piece looks like a nakago.

Like all that swords there is a wide range of posibilities. Minatogawa swords are more rare than yasukuni-to. Many of that sword lay somewehre in the pacific. So it is not easy to compare that swords against each others. I'm honest - i didn't know if it is gimei or not. For what price is it gone?
-
Im not sure that it is gimei. The kikusi mon looks sometimes a little bit loosy. from aio arts - yagumo yokota masatome

Now to see such a sword lying on the battlefield reminds me that we collect not only a normal object. Every piece has its unknown told story. -
Thats such a funny idea. I must notice it

My plan is after passing to give it to Christies or Herman Historica and they make a nice book which you can buy for $25. The title will be: Collection of a honorable man and gentleman.
