Hello gents Here are Two tsubas with very different estimates. It will be interesting who might be closer, Christies lately seem to be always well under on their estimates http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/20503/l ... 26r1%3D144 http://www.christies.com/lotfinder/arms ... de48d7994b

Well with so many fakes now on the market, and a much copied smith. I have seen so many variants of this signature. My question would be . Has anyone got a papered example?

Peter I know of someone who purchased a katana from him some years ago, that he had polished and papered with him (failed, no reason given). By the time it arrived to the UK it was too late to complain through Paypal and Ebay. The sword had a fatal problem, and he NEVER answered his email. Regards
