  1. Hi everyone, do we know if anyone is going and will take our pieces if registered? I live on the East coast and would need an intermediary to accompany a submission so any help is appreciated. I know it’s a hassle for sure as I have done this before with some reputable and amazing people. Regards Ron
  2. I see the bottom three as Ju YoshiKuni. Not sure of the upper two, maybe Chikushi
  3. Thank you Ray! Much appreciated and kind regards to you
  4. Hello and good day. My karate student asked me to translate this mei and I’m unsure of the character above Hide Saku. Any help is appreciated and I’m always grateful. Regards Ron
  5. Very nice pieces. Too bad they aren’t in the USA. Best wishes on the sales
  6. Hi guys thank you again, here are some hamon pics. Can’t see the much as it’s out of polish. Thanks
  7. This came in a civilian koshirae as well. Thanks for everyone’s input.
  8. Bruce, here are the nakago pics. Unfortunately it has no other marks nor a mei, and no hint of any other stamps regardless of appearance. Thank you for your time and effort toward creating and keeping files for these items. Regards and respect Ron
  9. I suppose the next question is are these considered nihonto in that they are forged? Thanks for the replies so far, my friends
  10. Awesome thanks so much, you guys are awesome!
  11. Do you think this number 211659 coincides with this hotstamp? Seems so, for the type of steel used on mine
  12. Hello to you all, hoping for some help with this katana mei. Thank you in advance for any help and direction. Regards Ron
  13. Hello all, I picked up a wakizashi, 53.5cm, long, appears to be ubu iriyamagata nakago-jiri with takanoha yasurimei. The hamon looks like rounded chu gunome on one side with a few showing points as well. Wondering what schools may do this, as I didn’t think Mino used this jiri that much. Please give any thoughts if you have the time to reply. Thank you and best to all. See pics attached
  14. What an awesome read! Well done on your work for this and I appreciate the pictures and text translations.
  15. Ordered and now waiting to see another one of your amazing works, Sir!
