    I am familiar with the the Fujishiro rating I’m bummed out thinking I had the correct information Now I have to figure out where I can find info for shinto ChikuzenNobukuni. since I was looking in the wrong places Thanks so much

    Quote me if I’m wrong know it’s not the value However I think it represents how good the sword was made ? like good excellent etc Like a grading system Also Jo suka gives it more? So any of this doesn’t represent mine ?Excuse my lack of knowledge
  4. Swords
    Bummer I thought it was 3.5milliom yen Or jo suka Thanks Ray

    I’m trying to see if this information is correct for this sword I did some research but can use another opinion

    I agree don’t want to put more than it’s worth Having a takayama sword is a nice collectible And a mint blade However not worth a new scabbard And not the same unless it’s a navy So probably best to leave it as is At least it still has a navy look to it and holds the sword Thanks for your help
  7. Swords
    Thanks Bruce I know a takayama scabbard is next to impossible Is it worth it to have new scabbard made being this sword?
  8. Swords
    Thanks to all for your help The new scabbard won’t be the same as the Navy Also more money would hurt the value when come time to sell I might get it repaired however I’m not sure if this is an original navy saya ? Steve
  9. Swords
    Question is having a scabbard made by who? If I could find a navy one would be great but being a takayama sword would be next to impossible

    Hi I have this sword I want to put up because I can use some help with this sword I did some research about the smith and couldn’t find much information I saw one like it on the internet and was valued at over 2000 without papers This is the ist one I ever had with NBTHK Hozon documentation Does this add any value? Anyway I paid about 2400 incld EBay fees or it would have been 2000 It’s also in full polish I wanted a short sword hope I didn’t do to bad Steve

    Good question The saya It’s wooden black paint I don’t know if the saya is original or replacement? It has some splitting on top front and bottom It appears it’s too thick for the saya maybe shrinkage cause this? I was thinking of gluing the splitting but if you pinch the front top of the saya It Won’t go in all the way The blade itself is beautiful takayama sword Any suggestions?

    I find it interesting I have another sword A takayama I believe by the same smith except it’s stainless much shorter an thicker

    I wis I could attend but with the new Covid and flying I’m staying home for now but thanks for asking yea your right having a discussion of books are interesting 🧐 So others attacks you 2 hours ago but because the theme changed an hour later it’s all forgotten ?? Il leave it on a positive note with books Do you know who said “I stand alone against many but I shall not give into defeat “ Steve

    I don’t know what threads you read but I disagree I have said many times thanking others constructive criticism I accept Non destructive criticism I don’t
  21. Swords

  22. Swords

  23. Swords
