I’m looking for an antique Menpo and an antique Hanbo to buy.Or I could swap for an antique kabuto in very good condition.Please contact me if you have any to sell of swap. Regards.

Blue lacing…….

The kabuto with blue lacing is in my collection.

If the Tachi is still for sale could you show the blade and the price.Regards.

Many thanks. I’m selling to save for a kabuto. Collecting is like a disease.You feel great for awhile then it creeps back.

A few more pictures.

Ww2 Japanese sword for sale .Blade 25”. The sword has a strong sori and is in good condition.Old iron tsuba on sword.I would like £1200 for the sword.Which is a good price for a Second World War Japanese sword.

I posted this sword about a year ago and unfortunately I’ve lost the transition for it .Could someone be so kind and translate the tang again. Regardsand thanks.

Why is it a rough black finish?Looks strange to me.

Does anyone know how we can import antique swords into the U.K.Plus What’s going to happen on the so called banning of swords in the U.K.?regards.

It bits abit when people try it on.But as you say just go forward. But don’t forget. I’ve a few friends who collect swords .It only took a few words in there shell like and they are a lot wiser about some people .Thanks for the response people. Regards.

I have been told from the guy.I bought it from some of the marks on the blade were due to the time it was in British customs.Ive collected ww2 Japanese swords for quite a few years and I’ve never seen that much rust/ staining build up in a month.Yes it a genuine Japanese sword.regards .

The pictures of the sword were from a distance,so it was not possible to tell the proper condition of the blade.

Second batch of photos.

I think these were part of Dave Thatchers collection.Both in great condition.regards
