Brian Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 Not sure what you mean there Grey...but I do like my grain to be on the blade, and not in the photos :D Surprised he didn't add "has a very visible grain" :lol: Brian Quote
Grey Doffin Posted September 30, 2007 Author Report Posted September 30, 2007 Brian, You need to read the description a bit more carefully. Grey Quote
Pete Klein Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 Oh Lord -- I haven't got a chance!!! I wonder if possibly there's a lack of ploughshares somewhere? Quote
sencho Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 I wonder which one it is that is bidding... he doesn't specify... By the way, how do you describe a sword using terms that indicate an apparent knowledge of nihonto, and not remove the tsuka to check for a signature after owning it for several years.... Fishy...

Mark Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 i had to read it 3 times to find what you mentioned. Quote
Bungo Posted October 1, 2007 Report Posted October 1, 2007 I don't get it..........you mean how he knows the length of the nakago without removing the tsuka ? The fuzzy pics? but what that got to do with " you'll find you're up against some very serious competition. " ? milt the ronin Quote
