Hermes Posted May 25, 2008 Report Posted May 25, 2008 Any opinion is welcome, i have been thinking of sending this sword to Japan for papering, i would like to know how much that might cost if warranted? Overall length in mounts is 28.5". Overall blade length is 25.5" Cutting edge is just under 20". with is just over 1" and thickness is massive at well over 1/4". Thank You, James Quote
Stephen Posted May 25, 2008 Report Posted May 25, 2008 Hi James IMHO its worth papering, but then im evil, all kidding aside here is the guide line for prices. http://www.bushidojapaneseswords.com/nbthkshinsa.htm Quote
Hermes Posted May 26, 2008 Author Report Posted May 26, 2008 Thanks Stephen and will take a few pictures today of the whole blade and post them Rémy! Cheers! James Quote
Hermes Posted May 26, 2008 Author Report Posted May 26, 2008 It is overcast right now, i will take a few better pictures asap and replace this one. James Quote
Stephen Posted May 26, 2008 Report Posted May 26, 2008 i was wondering about the boshi and if it turned back..so did some photo shop...very nice blade. I think it needs to be sent to me for a few months for inspection just to make sure about sending it for papers. if you ever get the picture taking down some hada shots would be nice. Quote
Hermes Posted May 27, 2008 Author Report Posted May 27, 2008 Here Brian, hada hada hada! hehe Feel free to use photo shop, i haven't added it to my new PC, wait a minute it's been 6 month's at least, lazy dog. LOL. James Quote
remzy Posted May 29, 2008 Report Posted May 29, 2008 i cant tell you how much it would cost to get this papered since im not a nbthk member ( it think i red that its priceyer if you arent a member) but i doubt you'd have any problem getting hozon for this, dont know about the kashirae but the blade look flawless from here and the boshi is splendid!
