Japan is full of nationalists. There is 2,5 milion registered blades in Japan alone?
-
Wooden saya? It could be type 94 without some parts and leather cover. If you can please give us photo of saya entry.
-
This particular koshirae have rust spot and cut markings in area where could be mounted another haikan. Your opinion please. Its shorter sword but distance between haikan should be similar. It have open tsuba but those were used in 94 and early 98s. Chuso isnt centered.

RJT Kanetoshi - Military Swords of Japan - Nihonto Message Board https://share.google/FjYi7D9z4FmMNDmdX Check this and look for star stamp. But mei looks different. More pictures of entire blade. Why it have 2 mekugi ana? Its mounted in civil koshirae now?

Showato, untraditional blade.
-
Bump for peps who dont get it yet.
-
You have sword signed with owner details?
-
Thx for all input. I should have bought it even as decoration I suppose.
-
Boyz as suvenir and being nlf think about this configuration. [Convincing to potential buyer] Imagine trying to run on land with navy black belt and sword attached on 2 stripes. But basic idea was to fight with small gun in one hand and sword in the other [after using whistle or sth]

Request for slight examination
Rawa replied to moriarty's topic in Auctions and Online Sales or Sellers
Beaten and eaten. Pass on it bro. This having only one mekugi ana worries me even more. Better go for brand new 1090 steel chinese. At least you wont hurt anyone. This one saw everything and it wasn't everything in iaido only. Probably rattles more annoyingly then icecream truck
-
Yeah I posted it here
-
Its sold already but I would like to hear your opinion.
-
It lasted a day maybe. Someone going for more then a simple cosplay

Its not even about copying patterns. They are masters in aging. But as gunto are not in high price bracket yet we wont see their real forged masterpieces. You can pick any crest you need https://ebay.us/m/oZyKOR
-
I meant its not that rare. But still irrelevant to discussion about quality of modern chinese imitations.
-
I know that seller in my link is selling imitations. Men I was mentioning quality of mounting. I even posted it in fake tab. This cucamonga seller is real trouble. Leather cover like posted by me pops up really often.
-
Someone was warning us here about fake blades in genuine mountings. Maybe entire package was fake from beginning.
-
Fittings looks good for "genuine" fake, except sarute maybe. https://ebay.us/m/6Wka9Q
-
Mekugi is bamboo? Looks kinda red. If it is african rosewood then its wood used in chinese imitations.
