Adam M Posted February 23, 2014 Report Posted February 23, 2014 Hello to everyone, I have just joined the forum and would like to introduce myself (please forgive me if I have posted this in the wrong section). My name is Adam I am 19 years old from Derbyshire in the UK, I have been interested in Nihonto for a little over a year now and have been searching for my first sword. I also have an interest in WW2 militaria which lead me to imperial Japan and through that I have become fascinated in Nihonto and samurai history. As a WW2 collector my strongest subject is Guntos but I will try to contribute where I can. I hope to learn a lot from the forum and converse with follow collectors. Thanks Adam M Quote

Brian Posted February 23, 2014 Report Posted February 23, 2014 Hi Adam, and welcome. If you are looking for your first sword, might I point you toward this, posted today: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=18217 Although not in Gunto mounts, it is a very nice Gendaito, and I think "cheap as chips" It is going to go very fast.
