drbvac Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 He has several blades for sale supposedly from an estate and they vary greatly in appearance and quality but the buy it now prices don't seem consistent or a lot of money http://www.ebay.com/itm/220864593797?ss ... 1438.l2649 Quote
NihontoEurope Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 Hi Brian, Expensive blade. Damaged/broken hamon according to picture. I don't know the seller. /Martin Quote
NihontoEurope Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 Brian, Another observation: The seller has two swords out for sale and neither of them is represented with a picture of the nagako. It raises some questions in my head. /Martin Quote
Grey Doffin Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 Not commenting on the prices, but the blades and sales seem to be on the level. If you'd like to see pictures of the nakago write and ask for some. Grey Quote
drbvac Posted September 28, 2011 Author Report Posted September 28, 2011 Here is the link I meant originally and these are all over the place but a couple dont look terrible and starting at 10 bucks! I wonder who this guy is http://stores.ebay.com/namarama?_trksid=p4340.l2563 Quote
chrisf Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 Who knows and who cares? First two swords are definitely fakes,I didn't bother to look at the rest... Quote
drbvac Posted September 28, 2011 Author Report Posted September 28, 2011 Glad you are sure they are fakes that makes me feel better 0 not so sure they are all fakes - they are sure as hell in very poor shape but 10 bucks ~! Quote
Grey Doffin Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 I saw those and wrote to the seller about the fakes. Got an answer that an expert had looked at them and had determined they were real. I think one of the 7 is real and another might be. The rest are phoney baloney. Grey Quote
