Promo Posted September 16 Report Posted September 16 While surfing a firearms auction - my main interest - I noticed that starting with lot 165 until lot 177 there are a little bit more than 20 blades in this auction. Maybe of interest to some that otherwise would not search there. I can't tell much about the auction company since I have not dealt with them in the past, nor do I know anyone there (for being from the other side of the world). https://auctions.militarylane.com.au/#!/auctions/d7c99452-dfd4-4454-a76a-8ea06e1f9ebf?ic=90&page=2 2 2 Quote

When Necessary Posted September 16 Report Posted September 16 This 'SHORT Japanese GEISHA ASSASINS KNIFE' is even better than a Kamikaze suicide dagger. Is the geisha short or only the knife? Is her job title missing an 's' because she's short? (And almost as intriguing is the fact that this post will not allow me to write the word 'Japanese' in all caps.) 🤔 7 1 Quote

I highly doubt they know on how to take them apart .. Well, maybe someone from Australia can help them with description and taking apart plus identification? 1 1 Quote
Lewis B Posted September 16 Report Posted September 16 Someone needs to introduce them to spell checking and proof reading. So many mistakes. The Aussies should be ashamed 1 1 Quote
