John A Stuart Posted January 2, 2009 Report Posted January 2, 2009 Ha ha ha, now we know what becomes of those dead swords. Wood chips for repairing saya anyone? John Quote
Kevin Posted January 3, 2009 Report Posted January 3, 2009 Dear god! And half of those bits seem to have been butchered with a grinder, presumably before being turned into confetti. Kevin Quote
GregD Posted January 3, 2009 Report Posted January 3, 2009 They do look like bottom of the barrel repair parts,if you really want to do sword repair such as umegane(fill in ware or openings in sword skin)you want sections of the ji between the kissaki and the nakago,and at that,sections that will match the hada and color of the steel the best.

Grey Doffin Posted January 3, 2009 Report Posted January 3, 2009 I bought a wakizashi from this seller, skapala, and it showed up without its boshi. Still haven't got my money back. Be careful if you do a deal with him. Grey Quote
Brian Posted January 3, 2009 Report Posted January 3, 2009 I bought a wakizashi from this seller, skapala, and it showed up without its boshi. Grey, Now we know where the boshi is....I think it's in that pic somewhere Brian Quote
