ROKUJURO Posted July 10 Report Posted July 10 Frédéric, can KANETSUJI (兼辻) be read as KANETSUGU as well? Quote
Robert S Posted July 10 Report Posted July 10 I'm interested why you cannot ship blades to Canada, as I receive them from Japan, the US... 1 Quote
Fred420 Posted July 11 Author Report Posted July 11 Hi Robert, I thought the regulations had changed and that it was impossible to send swords to Canada, but if you know a way, I would be very happy to ship the blade to Canada. When you receive blades from Japan, which company handles the delivery? I will go check on Monday morning at the post office. Have a great weekend. Quote
Fred420 Posted July 11 Author Report Posted July 11 Hi Rokujuro I don't think thay the signature can be read as kanetsugu. Kanetsugu is 兼次. Quote
ROKUJURO Posted July 11 Report Posted July 11 That's what I thought. So it is a typo in your text above: ....This blade is a Muromachi period Wakizashi signed: Nōshū no jū Kanetsugu (濃州之住兼辻).... Quote
PNSSHOGUN Posted July 11 Report Posted July 11 Same goes with Australia, there are no limitations currently known. 1 Quote
Natichu Posted July 11 Report Posted July 11 No limitations to Canada to my knowledge; I have had no issues importing a few, all through EMS on the Japan side and Canada Post on the Canadian side. Quote
TimthewanderingBelgian Posted July 12 Report Posted July 12 Hi Fred Congrats on the new shop and best of luck! Q: Why is shipping to Belgium an issue? Greetings, Tim Quote
Fred420 Posted July 13 Author Report Posted July 13 Erratum: I made a mistake in the translation of the signature in the description. The sword is signed Kanetsuji, not Kanetsugu. The correct signature is Kanetsuji. 1 Quote
