John A Stuart Posted October 16, 2012 Report Posted October 16, 2012 Other than basic costs, $100/inch, suggestions should be made via PM with the pros and cons of whom to polish your sword and of course the standard "You get what you pay for". John Quote
cabowen Posted October 16, 2012 Report Posted October 16, 2012 Having a good job done in Japan will cost you more than $100/inch these days with the weak dollar...The going rate is 10.000Yen per inch.... Quote
zentsuji2 Posted October 17, 2012 Author Report Posted October 17, 2012 Looks like i would have to leave unpolished blades alone ,it is only a star stamped gendaito.i will have to find an english polisher but does it ever look as good or even worse devalue a blade.thanks anyway. Quote
cabowen Posted October 17, 2012 Report Posted October 17, 2012 If you use someone who wasn't professionally trained, it will never look like it could and there is a very good chance it will be ruined. Quote
