A little special feature A beautiful original D Guard sword ( Koshirae with Ka Mon) with a special fitted high quality beautiful ctrafted sword balde by Muto Hidehiro with imperial special date. You can clearly see from the nakago, that it was fitted to the old handle. It is also interesing that the thick quality habaki is signed on the inside, (both sides). I think I reconize "Chikugo"

Thank you a lot Piers perfect !
-

sorry printing error, I meant "ukiyoe"

i hope somebody can help me and translate this Kanji They came from an woodblockprint (ukijoe9 owned by Kotani Yasunori,which I received as a birthday present years ago. Thank you in advance!

to complete

yes,thank you Eric Molinier, who sent this beautiful Tanto Yasunori Tanto to Germany to Michael67
-
interesting one might be think, that with the intensity of the war, individual production steps were simplyfied??, because as can beseen in the graphic in tom Kishid's book, the production number of manufactered blades increased. to what extent this alsso affects the rarer Tanto blades cannot be confirmed certainly.
-
let's get back to the point Michael what kind of Mune shape does your beautiful YasunoriTanto have? A mitsumune too?
-
Michael from Neil perhaps??
-
yes, thats how it is with shipping, someone is always selling and shipping

beautiful shaped Kikusui Masanao if you mount the original handle on one of these great swords, as long as the original koshirae is still there, such a tachi gets a completely new look

Nicholas It's an honor Nicholas, thank's a lot! Its always difficult,to judge a blade on pictures for me.rather than seeing the blade in person.. But I know that where you live there are plenty of highly qualified swords experts, far superior to my modest knowledge, who would surely be happy to help you.... good luck!!!!!

one more thing RAWA I've been working with Yasukuni shrine swords for over 35 years and was very fortunate to learn a great deal from the honorable Mr Han Bing siong, who possessed great experience I was always very grateful to him, and still remeber him with gratitude and respect!!! this ialso applies to my friendly contact with Kotani Yasunori san who was a a very polite, wonderful person and a great artist
-
finally a real advive for you RAWA before you start collecting Japanese swords,I recommend buying books and reading them Then you'll know, that there are no dai saku swords by yasuhiro that were made at the Yasukuni jinja I don't want say anything moreabout that, as I've explained! Good Luck!

Rawa As I already wrote, or asked what is wromg with you? I would like to ask you with all due couresty not to bother me any further! I make my own decisions about who I advic on questions and I won't let you know, force me to do so. That's the golden rule of politeness
-
