hxv Posted August 14, 2015 Author Report Posted August 14, 2015 Thank you Thomas. The fading looks unnatural, though, doesn't it? Regards, Hoanh Quote
Stephen Posted August 14, 2015 Report Posted August 14, 2015 Have you asked Bill? http://www.artswords.com/Japanese%20sword%20tassels.htm Quote

Kai-Gunto Posted August 15, 2015 Report Posted August 15, 2015 Its original,,but with a closer look , I saw its missing the wowen crowns on the tassel. So stay away from that. I think You got luck with artswords ,nice to deal with. Quote

Austo1 Posted August 15, 2015 Report Posted August 15, 2015 Hi have a couple that will cost $130US including tracked postage to the US however both haved issues. One has wear from the saurute and snags on the straps as can be seen in the pics. The other is the in the middle of the pic with the green background. Nice tassel however missing the blue tassels on the righ side tassel.One has to look to notice it. These are the both the lowest price ones that I have available.
