  1. How could it be a Koto if the maker is Tsuda Oumi no kami Sukenao? He's a 17th century swordsmith.
  2. Is the shinsa process in the US exactly the same as in Japan? Is the same paper NTHK issued as in Japan?
  3. You don't really need a NBTHK paper to tell you it's a Kikuchi Yari, just like you don't need a NBTHK paper to tell you a sword is a katana or a wakizashi. This type of Yari has existed from the Kamakura period to the Edo period and can be found across Japan. What is the point of issuing such a paper? This paper literally has zero useful information. Usually, the paper should look like this
  4. According to NBTHK shinsa criteria, Edo and earlier blades with correct mei, or mumei blades on which the time period, kuni and school can be identified, may receive Hozon paper. However, this paper doesn't identify anything!
  5. Different branches of Tokugawa clan use different style of Aoi mon. The Aoi mon on this saya is not belong to any Matsudaira branch but only used by the Shogun family, Owari Tokugawa family, Kishū Tokugawa family and Mito Tokugawa family.
  6. I saw a very strange NBTHK on ebay. It is a mumei Kikuchi Yari, but I see no maker/school/period be mentioned on the paper. I don't see any useful information on this paper, what do you guys think?
  7. I don't think the mountings can be dated to Edo period because of the Tokugawa clan mon on the saya. It is not permissible to make Tokugawa clan mon on the saya if the owner is not a member of Tokugawa clan in Edo period. Most of these sayas are souvenirs made after the Meiji Restoration.
  8. - 以錆ナイ鋼作之 藤原兼永 - 日本刀の通信販売 明倫産業 刀剣バックナンバー (nipponto.co.jp) Another example. Watanabe Kanenaga is a big name.
  9. An Edo Period Wakizashi made by Third-gen Izumi no Kami Rai Kinmichi和泉守来金道 with Shirasaya The third-gen Izumi no Kami Rai Kinmichi was forging blades in Kyoto in the early Edo period(Mid-Late 17 century).He was allowed to inscribe a chrysanthemum emblem, which is the symbol of the Japanese emperor. His sword-forging technique was so great that the emperor licensed him to use this emblem, which was quite honorable for any swordsmiths. Blade length: 54cm Sori : 0.9cm Weight: 514g SOLD Reasonable offers accepted, please PM if interested.

  15. The Ianaba school Kanesaki's history began in the beginning of Edo period and continued until the Meiji Restoration. Obviously, Markus Sesko"s Index must have missed a lot of names.
  16. I received this Edo period Teppo from a friend. Because there is no one near my town can restore antique gun, I decide to sell it. I don't know much about Teppo, so I asked in the forum. You can see more information and pictures in this link. I would like to sell it at $2500(via Zelle, include shipping cost), but the price is negotiable. If you want to use other third-party platforms(ebay, Etsy), I have to rise the price to cover fee and tax. Please PM me if you want to buy or need more photos. Only ship within the US
