Kyu Gunto Fiitings

[Nihontocollector19]

I have a set of kyu gunto fittings I’m thinking of letting go of since I

Having the blade papered and polish originally I planed to keep them but I’m having thoughts of letting them go the blade is not for sale but they come with Tsunagi Interested in hearing offers or trades. I won’t let go easy

Surrender tags not included with mounts

[Ray Singer]

While it obviously happens that collectors decide to sell their swords' koshirae I would suggest keeping the koshirae with the blade (at minimum, for the sake of preserving the history).

 

Best regards,

Ray

Agree with Ray 100%.

Think about keeping together Andy.

Okay I will how do I delete this thread

[Stephen]

A mod will read and do it. Thank you for preserve its history

110% agree with Ray.

 

it is a crime to dismantle history, you would regret it in the future

 I remember a Japanese collector saying that the ideal was to have the blade in shirasaya, and the mounts on a tsunagi both on the same rack.

[Ray Singer]

Perhaps a good idea to archive this sales post rather than delete (if Andrew agrees). It's good to have the reminder to preserve these swords intact, with the koshirae and blades kept together.

Not only is it blasphemous to seperate the mounts for nickle and dime profits, to then also not include the surrender tag......

 

Delete and never let such thoughts enter your head again

Keeping the thread as good advice for anyone else contemplating.
