PNSSHOGUN Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 Very nice Kanemichi Volker, if you can find early works like this or his initial Mei of Kanetoki there are some impressive Gendai he made. It seems difficult to find these Gendai after the war started, he produced more Showato for the war effort. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael 67 Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 That was a year in which some of my blades left, others were added. Here, for example, is a Minamoto Yoshichika Tachi from 1928. It came in the original box. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
