  1. Sorry about the lack of pictures. I actually took some more but they didnt seem to upload. ill add them now.
  2. Looking to sell a tanto i picked up from Aoi Art a few years ago. Here is the description written by them since they can describe it better than i ever could. Dagger: With white sheath, with a sword (special preservation sword) Inscription: Hira Nagamori  At our company, the best work, the finest work, the finest work, and the normal work are described according to the result of the swordsmith . Polished finely polished Habaki: Bare copper Blade length: 27.8 cm Warp: 0.3 cm Eye nail hole: 2 Original width: 2.79 cm Stack : 0.48 cm Blade weight: 220 g Age: Around the end of the Muromachi era 1457 Hodoku : It is a little wide and has three layers, and it has a warp, and a sword and claws are carved on the front. Ground iron: The grained skin is mixed with the grained skin, and the ground boiling is good and the scenery is well inserted. Blade crest: Boiled, rounded and bright, with small legs in the hat, rounded, and scraped off.

The result is excellent and the Wakizashi is extremely well made. This is the best work I would definitely recommend.

  4. Thats what i was thinking haha. not sure what the other little items would be though.
  5. thanks the info guys. im pretty happy with it.
  6. Picked this one up recently, and its my second sword (first waki) comes with extra fittings, and papers. Let me know what you think, and any info you cant tell me would be greatly appreciated as im new the sword collecting game. if i could also get some help on the smith id appreciate that too, rather than making multiple threads in different forums. Also here's a little video - https://streamable.com/02enid
  7. Thanks Ray. Had my doubts on the 2nd, but no biggie. got it on ebay, so can just send it back for a refund.
  8. Picked these 2 swords up recently, and would like to know more info/opinions on them, and if someone can translate the tangs, and tags. Sword 1 came w/ capture tags, and would like to know if anything is legible enough to translate. Sword 2 is considerably shorter than the sheath, not sure if its been shortened at some point in its life. If youd like any more pics, let me know. thanks for any help. sword 1 a small video https://streamable.com/tv70qn sword 2
