im gonna try making better pics, but i only have my smartphone cam and im not sure its possible to get something in focus without having too strong light reflections

only with a microfiber cloth and maybe a bit of alcohol

i hope thats it. im gonna give it a good rub later today and if nothing changes im just gonna accept that this is how it looks

I have these weird circular spots appearing on my blade. they are only visible if the blade is bone dry. when i apply oil, they are invisible. originally i thought those are spots with dried oil, but nothing i did could remove them, now im a bit worried. what could these spots be? they appear in a pretty even pattern

Sold to Maurice_lmb

Sadly i have to sell this Yari because im in a tight financial situation. It has nice koshirae (although a bit short), a shirasaya and a Hozon origami. Asking pirce is 1280€ for shipping in EU, shipping outside EU will be more expensive. Blade length 13.6cm nakago length 24.8cm signed 24.8cm

Like i said i curretnly dont have my dslr and my smartphone doesnt like closeups. you might enjoy the photos from the website were i got it tho https://www.Japanese-sword-katana.jp/yari/2010-4011.htm

Yeah, a naginata would be really nice. i dont have the storage problem, i just put it next to my samurai armor and it looks really nice

Thanks for all the replies, ill try to answer them all. Mark, yes it fits the style well and i like it. its a small blade so the details are hard to see but its aesthetics work really well with the wakizashi i have (same school). with the last question i meant the monetary value. you can like a thing all you want but overpaying never is good. Jean, yes, i am not native in the english language so i just assumed it is the same. it is NBTHK Hozon papered. John, thats good to know. Jacques, thats a nice looking yari head. i like it. Marius, i will keep that in mind and maybe ask the seller if he shortened it. All in all im happy with my purchase and it fits well into my collection

Hi everyone, recently i bought my first yari from e sword and it arrived yesterday. its attributed to kawachi no kami nonju kanesada its related to the yamato tegai kanenaga den and that was the main reason i got it since i really like that style. Its a small yari head which is only barely longer than 12 cm. What are your opinions on it? was it worth the price of 200K yen? i basically have no expirience with yari (sorry for the bad pics, i currently dont have my DSLR) Regards, Simon

just looked through all the threads. your friend has a nice collection, especially the first struck me

wasnt active the last few days. thanks Chris, that made it clear.

another question. curretnly im reading a few books about nihonto and trying to educate my self about that topic in general. i still have a lot to learn and there is much i dont know. what impact does the damage of the sue bizen sword i shared above have on the swords value? i personally think it gives the sword a bit of "flavor" but how does the market see that?

i did plan to send it to a shinsa anyway, it just had that document with it when i bought it so i thought id mention it. correct me if im wrong but isnt the "max length" of a wakizashi also 2 shaku? everywhere i only read "wakizashi length is between 1 and 2 shaku"

im just reading through this whole thread now. truly a remarkable story. cant wait to see the blade in all its glory
