John C Posted January 3, 2024 Report Posted January 3, 2024 Came across this today - a website selling komongo and sohei-swords (Matt) stuff at half price. I confirmed with Matt this is not authorized by him. Probably using his auction information without permission. https://shoplazza.ru/product/225937909880 Sorry if this has been covered before but just came across it. John C. 2 1 1 Quote

So something fishy is going on. Japanese WW2 Koa Isshin Mantetsu Sword | eBay 1 Quote
John C Posted January 3, 2024 Author Report Posted January 3, 2024 The title and pictures of the auction are pulled word-for-word directly from the original auction. It seems all they are doing is changing the price to half off and saying "11 available". John C. Quote
Stephen Posted January 3, 2024 Report Posted January 3, 2024 Gave notice to seller his auction is hijacked. Quote

Stephen Posted January 3, 2024 Report Posted January 3, 2024 Nothing strange about other than outright fraud. 2 2 Quote
Guest Simon R Posted January 12, 2024 Report Posted January 12, 2024 Russia wouldn't allow the sale and export of any weapons - including swords. It needs them to arm the 15 and 80 year olds it will draft to fight Ukraine. Quote
