    Thanks Ludolf, I saw the listings in Hawleys and considered him to be the same smith as listed for Hid110 1867 and listed in Token Takai. This sword is signed Tachi Mei and came in 1934 double hanger mounts. David

    I have seen this on a Koto blade in gunto mountings as well. I think it is just for effect David

    Every now and then, some nut goes beserk with a sword somewhere in Australia. As most people already know, Victoria already has a legislation in place. NSW, was considering something similar, but has deffered. The problem is, if someone wants to go beserk, they can always find something. David

    Quang. I agree it's silly, But the ones I saw were advertised as him. I have a couple, plus a lot of oshigata. I think it may be done to mumei blades. Nagamistus have risen dramaticaly in price, over the last couple of years. David

    The difference between a ignorant person and an enlightened person is: The enlightened person knows he is ignorant, but keeps his mouth shut about it. David

    A friend of mine has a contemporary piece signed Bizen Yokoyama Suketada. It has old, 1981 NBTHK papers. He is listed in Hawley's, as is Sukeharu. Both are listed around the same: C1868. David

    This is purely hearsay. I was told the reason so many " unworthy " swords were going Juyo, was something to do with the NBTHK asking for " Donations " for Juyo submissions. David

    Nice little package. Whether or not it's gimei, you have to research. It comes down to how much you paid, against, how much YOU like it David

    which group would be considered the better? Or do they both have the same status David
  22. David Flynn
    I believe there are two seperate groups now called NTHK and both claim they are the main body David

    Mark, I believe they had a q&a session on saturday afternoon after the shinsa. Dave

    What about Francis Boyd in San Francisco. I've seen some of his work and think that it is very good. Also I believe his rates are very reasonable. Check his website David
