Buying From Japanese Sites - Translations?

[ken kata]

Hello Guys..

 

I saw this website somewhere here, and, I saw some blades I am interested in and want to buy one.

I was looking for the "Button" to "click here for English", but, I could not find it.

 

http://www.nipponto.co.jp/

 

I did e-mail them to inquire about 3 blades I am interested in..

They got a lot of blades there

 

Today, I would like to go and find Japanese Sword sites that have English translations.

I want to buy a blade. preferably a Tachi with Bohi. 

or, early Katana with bohi, Cut down Tachi is O.k.

Deep Sori a must.

 

Anyone would like to list "English - user friendly " Japanese Sword sites for me?

I was looking around..

I was hoping there you guys might know  ( and paste links ) the best/user friendly , and, not $$$ type of sites..

 

I did find this: 

http://japaneseswordindex.com/sites2.htm

 so, I will start here.

 

 

e-bay bidding/buying is taking too long.

Days seem like years, when bidding on Blades.

Sheees..  I'm tired of "chasing"  blades.. =      =  

 

I just like go to sites , see blades and buy . not bid and wait.

 

Thanks for viewing..

Have you tried our own links site?

Quite a few Japanese dealers there. Not all speak English, but the majority will be able to assist.

Oh Brian,

I was supposed to check that page, but, I forgot

Thanks for the "reminder"..

Had some good places.

Now, I seen many choices, from several dealers.

Funny, in that, there's always a better one at 500 to 1,000.00 Dollars more than what "You" wanted to spend/get.

Then, "You" figuring , another couple of weeks to save more $$ for that "Next Price level", then,

 

"You see another", that is quite close to "The One", that you thought you wanted, but, then, it happens again,.

You see another Blade, that is just 500 to 1,000 more.

History repeats it's self LOL

There's no end to Japanese swords.

It turns to an addiction..

Guys,

 

Any one here,

would like to be my "Daddy"..?

I would like to have someone , who would look at blade links I will send, and, help me 'Review" the Blades I am interested in, and tell me , as to, what it is, how good is to for the price.

and, which one you would  recommend getting..

Like, giving me "comfort" in knowing I am "buying" with confidence ( Your experience and confidence  )..

Like, positive reinforcement..   

 Doing this in Private Messaging, as to not attract others (who might buy it before me) or cause trouble for the seller/store that has that Blade for sale. 

 

These are for low cost blades around 380,000 to 480,000 Yen. 

Tachi, Katana , Koshirae a plus, Bohi preferred.

 

Thank You,

Your son,

 Alton Takata < Ready for adoption    Daddy needed.

 

Yes, Post your site links . I will go there.

I am looking to  buy now..

 

I went to some of your sites already.. a bit out of my range. I need a couple of months to "earn"  6G's + ..Like waiting a lifetime. I'm already "Koto".
