  1. Ok, sounds logical. But such a thing once to be supposed on koto blades, don`t you think? For the "Kunikane" .....NFI....., never seen a blade from this den. I myself go for Hosho, although the Tegai idea is not bad at all, considering the Nioiguchi. On the other hand....Sue Tegai.....shouldn't we see slight Kaeri All in all, not so easy as I thought at first Uwe
  2. Hi Thomas, nice to "see" you here, as well as in the "Budoforum" What leads you to this assumption Cheers Uwe
  3. Hi Jean, indeed, fine swords on AOI recently. In that case, I go for YH as well. Cheers Uwe
  4. Hi Piers, Oh yes....we keep the tape, it`s supposed against deep flying birds...... Well, seriously Speyer is located about 90 km south of Frankfurt am Main. So should be no problem for you, to reach it from Japan over the weekend :lol: Thanks Uwe
  5. Hi Eric, unfortunately nothing in terms of an exhibition-catalog, but an book about Samurai showing and describing some displayed items. Greetings Uwe PS: The "old man" is Klaus, a friend of mine
  6. Hi, here are some pics from preparations of the forthcoming exhibition in Speyer...... The "old man" with the withe beard is not me :lol: Cheers Uwe

  15. Hi folks, exactly the same thing happened to me sometimes ago, with a fresh polished nagamaki naoshi (in mounts ). Therefore I know, that there is no chance to straighten the tip At that time I took it back to the Togi (visit him ) and he polished it out the same day. Uwe

    Here is an old little koto waki I bought some years ago, as my first nihonto at all. The blade is out of polish and slightly bend. However, this "thing" is responsible for my nihontomania :D Unfortunately I` m still busy with the mei. Not even sure if this is a real one My first try was "Muneyasu". What do you think? Uwe

    ....looks a little bit like cast iron. On the other hand, the appearance of the surface and the red rust spots indicates that someone before used acid to remove the old rust. Only my 2cents Uwe
  21. Armor topic..........sounds interesting Uwe
  22. Hi Konstantin, NBTHK papered blade and koshirae as well. Hmmm....looks like a good sword to me. BTW: Bingo is the province and Mihara the school. So your sword is Yamato Tradition. Uwe
