Polished Gendaito

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, saw this awesome gendaito in full polish. Should I get it?

I haven't seen the nakago but I think it'll be a highly ranked smith.

 

Showa22 is not a rookie trader. Or maybe that's the issue? Is it just to draw search hits?

They must have recently changed the dictionary definitions of Gendaito, Handforged, Mint and Full Polish.

 

On another note, what in the hell is going on with this sword???

But there is another Gunto too that he calls Gendaito with showa stamp.

I dont like the blades from this seller because they look allways the same after his treatment.

 

I know a guy in germany who polished in every sword a good looking suguba hamon. No matter what it was before.  :glee:

Seems like I've seen something like this discussed somewhere. I think it was a blade presented to someone, like at a school, or factory, or something.

That's a good one Steve!!! My first reply didn't work, as I was trying to use the keyboard laughing emoji. This is odd because there is another thread where this dealer was getting good reviews. He either copied & pasted the wrong paragraph on the item description or clearly doesn't know what he is doing. But that would be odd because the guys that like him say he sells hundreds of swords.

Showa22 is a known shill bidder and you will never get a deal on anything he lists. He has accounts with high feedback that he uses to bid up his items. He had been a dealer on eBay for many years and has sold thousands of swords..
