    Crazy times. Navy koshirae maybe is rare but still you comparing gendaito vs gunto
  3. Marcin
    Look on this navy gunto: https://sword-auction.com/en/product/26428/as17080-katanatakeyasu-saku/

    1k-1,5k price is in £? Mountings looking nice.

    20% in germany? In Poland antiques have 8%
  6. Marcin
    In this auction seller also states that blade is in good condition https://www.jauce.com/auction/x1180786260

    But I got once problem with buying from usa. Was impossible to ship sword via plane. Except using fedex.
  8. Marcin
    Nope. For me its 8% with no customs duty fee except brokerage. But guarantee of low vat is only if I buy with some papers. Its great as long as I dnt have anything to do with national post office as they are so slow. Its better to pay full 23% vat sometimes for making proces quicker.

    Please dnt treat this seriously as my knowledge is poor Koshi-zori. Hamon Chu-suguha? Nakago unshortened? It have one small chip near yokote and scratches pointing that sword could be used for cutting in current state. Could this be shortened nagamaki?
  10. Marcin
    Work of exceptional Togishi. What can you tell me guys about tsuba?
  11. Marcin
    As you going crazy with gendai I came across this auction https://www.catawiki.com/pl/l/95007162-katana-stal-japonska-japonia Cheers!

  13. Marcin

    Lovely work. Glad for being here.
  16. Marcin
    Could this be shintetsu? But on both sides?
  17. Marcin
    It goes on both sides. Thats why Im asking.

    In auction posted below I see dark line running through hamon in parralel to ha. Spot starts 15cm from hamachi. How this kizu is called? Ware something? Its definitely a split. It is recognized as "fatal"? https://www.ebay.pl/itm/156845725169?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=4908-175131-2357-0&ssspo=Twk6GX_BQYi&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=jrSzcucxTf-&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  19. Marcin
    Nice. Give some photos.
  20. Marcin
    Yeah. Ofcourse buying forgery is bad. But what about buying worn out pieces? As long as you buy genuine piece, even if it have kizu, for me its worthy. Somebody put a lot of effort to make it. It still should be cherished. Im a freshmen in this topic. Started 15 years ago and had to drop it due to rl overworking. As long as I dn't overpay much it's fine for me. What my descendants would do with all I gather I dn't care. I won't be around then.
  21. Marcin
    In my hands now
  22. Marcin
    Check this e.g. https://www.ebay.pl/itm/167229032567?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=4908-175131-2357-0&ssspo=i-cU9RKGRia&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=jrSzcucxTf-&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY And another attempt: https://www.ebay.pl/itm/135620473583?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=4908-175131-2357-0&ssspo=i-cU9RKGRia&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=jrSzcucxTf-&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

    With buying swords there is always case of simple adventure. Many funny stories to tell.
  24. Marcin

  25. Marcin
