  1. Just to let everyone know how cool our little community is and especially how cool Chris K (higosan) is, he has offered to split the winning bid and allow me to keep my menuki as they are worth more! So rare!!
  2. Not sure what this Tsuba is supposed to represent, any insight is much appreciated!
  3. Wakizashi/katana ish size menuki. Auctioning them to donate the funds to help Hans Koga. Just found out 5 minutes ago, his house is unlivable. Starting bid is 100.00 min 10.00 bids please.. Will end Saturday 12am eastern standard time. Thanks in advance!
  4. The fuchi/Kashira are sold thank you! Menuki are still available.
  5. My wife said "thanks" Id say its a match..
  6. Really? That's the reply, like I was trying to be an ass? Sword sword locally today, thanks for the interest! Please delete!
  7. And to add, I doubt this ever had one as it has no nengo, so a back door blade
  8. A better pic of the fuchi/Kashira color
  9. You don't get to keep the registration card, it is not provided upon export.. They're just for internal registration of swords in Japan, sadly sometimes you see them with swords listed on ebay describing them as papers
  10. No shirasaya, just blade and habaki.. Antti, could you send me the link?
  11. No worries, the inquisition is fine, I'm married. Tosogu isn't really my thing, I just base my purchase on if I like it or not. Any and all comments welcome!
  12. Nope, not komonjo. I will check on eBay right now, thanks!
  13. Wanted to add there are 2 small areas of oxidation on the blade but I just keep it oiled.. It goes without saying that this is for battou not art.
  14. I admit I am defaulting to Ian Champan's opinion as that is what I purchased them as. I should ask, in your opinion do you agree or disagree? Now I'm wondering if I should edit it to omori "style" waves? Regards,
  15. Not a komonjo blade, maybe a few notches higher but definitely a gimei shinsakuto. Definitely Japanese as it came out of Japan but it's signed sukehiro saku with no nengo.. 31.25" nagasa tight itame hada and nice hamon. Comes with 2pc silver foiled habaki. 1500.00usd plus shipping
  16. Katana sized omori wave fuchi Kashira, deep carving, good quality shakudo. Fuchi is 3.8cm Unfortunately they won't fit my sword Asking big 800.00usd shipped
  17. Geraint, I missed the "harima daijo" part, I thought the sandai used that as well...? I am a newbie though. The nagasa is 60cm Thanks again!
  18. Some pics.. On the paper to the left of shigetaka is the "kodai" kanji I was referring to. Also someone added "Ryu" in higana in pen. Thanks again for the input!
  19. I'll get some pics soon, I'm in the process of buying it. It has old green nbthk papers that state "kodai" which I was told most likely means they couldn't pin it down but it meant it wasn't the shodai, so either nidai or sandai as the mei has "harima daijo" in it. As I said I'll get pics soon, thanks for all the input!
