Haha! You made my day Bruce - thanks.

Ray how can i link the Facebook article? https://www.facebook...nks=2629408510574243 Is there any button to copy the url? I fail. https://www.facebook...nks=2629408510574243

Thanks Ray. Could is post your translation to the owner on Facebook?

I'm not sure with this. I think it reads something like Kanatan Daito Jinjia Yasumune saku??? But it looks not really cisled. Could it be etched?

But it is not available. You should look on jauce maybe you find it there. Or on etsy. If you find one unpatinated you can made it like you want with different cold patination and colors. Good luck.

Jean these modern acrylic lacquers are nearly impossible to remove.

He can use some brokat fabric too. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CW5G8C98/ref=sr_1_104_sspa?__mk_de_DE=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&crid=P8FG92DGVP49&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.MFaKRd0YoJHWVqDVccBCbfMFy_t7OsFlweojWrGCdP2fKNangM4gPeFLbwd5QAZxWOGrFZdR39oqohRv2MIqd27dqQnqc9ehiWxDDVzJL0pQ1n5IOseZAOPVe49V-rDMwiWLtGcTuxWDG5TUcFC9IV3jJ6LV6kK4MRPRon3f3P7s6x4xPS2WHQUqHFz49VM6vSIrSzSYZD96cpqETdgn_llAP59mnOHghSV3R20fV7oeDs-XwcYvC1-eEcqugoEEZB2BN9adz1kqphUukgEB0vPczmzTcB4HftchQmROXiY.twdWcLKk78tsRGPeDvStUwvECAAYlXNPluKn7SG7vwA&dib_tag=se&keywords=brokat%2Bfabric&qid=1715257390&sprefix=brokat%2Bfabric%2Caps%2C163&sr=8-104-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9tdGY&th=1

I know Jean but i think he wanted to look for a reproduction for a martial arts sword. I found one for 19.95 Dollar on the etsy website. But it is coated with clear lacquer so he could not patinate it. Sometimes one pop up fresh from the cast. These ones are perfect for patination and coloring.

Great pictures Oli. Thanks for sharing this nice Akihisa. I have a late stage Akihisa but it needs a polish in future because of some ugly rust damage and scratches. These are some good parts.

(Ko-) Shoami is allways a good guess when all points are unclear. All famous school like higo and others refers to shoami.

Really nice ones. Congratulation

Maybe Mazu Kaze have different ways to sell or he bought over jauce? Mazu Kaze is a trust worthy buyer and seller in my eyes.

This one?

He carries his rips on his knee. Freedom af art. 😂

Brian i have not a bad day. I read the things and try to discover something new. But this is what it is. The text refers further to 11 Tsuba of high quality in his collection. 37; 38; 48; 50; 51; 55; 61; 62; 67; 69; 70 The second group are characterized als souvernirs. The third group are better quality. The last group are not real sword guards. They were nice presents even though they have no historical or artistic value (Fig.Nos. 21, 39, 45, 56, 75, 76) and they probably motivated the buyer to come to the shop again. So lets take a look on the 11 high quality pieces which are described in the text. 37. 38. 48. 50. 51. 55. 61. 62. 67. 69. 70. For my personal interest i would like to see this decoration tsuba in color.

Did you think the sword was sent to china to fit in a new koshirae? Or was the koshirae made in Japan with chinese fake fittings? I have some problemes to handle your thoughts. It's a legt Yasukuni-to with Hozon. And it seems the sword fits in the koshirae.

No Dale its not about you, sorry. But i wonder that no one says that it is trash. All the pieces are not worth to waste time. I think its just a joke or the museum is total uneducated.

Not mine but it's amazing. https://nihontoantiq...vsKkWPUHzHREstaQhcOQ

He shows some addtional pictures. Looks all legit for me. A very stunning koshirae.

Come on. Thats the worst collection i ever noticed. Dale that is trash in my eyes.

That one Ray? Edit: ah no. this is type98

See that today on Facebook. I think thats a very mint Koshirae and a nice sword. The Tassel looks like replica. Other meaning is that the koshirae is a complete replica. What you think? For me it looks amazing. If its fake the quality is amazing.

Many trödel. I wonder what i looked at.
