Macro is great. The only problem with it is light source. If you are using onboard flash, it can miss your object. However if you have a good light source, then macro is great. David -

We here in Australia take being in the military seriously. Thats why our Prime Minister has told the UN that we would contribute to the Multi national force in Lebanon. So, as soon as we recruit him and train him, we'll send him on his way David -

Milt before you buy it, why not ask the dealer David -
I'm a predominately a Gendai collector. I generaly don't collect anything post war, although I have one sword from 1988. However with my own collecting Jargon, I consider Shinsakuto, to Made by the smiths taught Post war and comming into prominance from the 1970s onwards. I also go on shape and style. One only has to have a shinsakuto in their hands, to know it is a shinsakuto. Again just my opinion' :D David

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

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

Does Jin Soo Kim still have a website? If please let me know what it is. Thanks 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

Thank you for that information. However I'm still trying to find out as much as I can. David

I put this sword in the NY shinsa and it scored 75points. But still can't find anything about him 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
