Hi Guys thanks for the help! I had a situation where I was about to purchase a complete armour locally and didn't have a good feeling about it. I reached out to several armour/nihonto dealers for help and Nick is the one that replied. We had some good long discussions and I felt that he was a trustworthy person to purchase from. I do think that you input is correct, I should have asked questions and learned more before purchasing but I do not feel that Im making a bad purchase here, just simply want to learn more about that armor from an educational stand point.
Also is the armor for the http://nihon-no-katchu.proboards.com/ ?? The links page doesn't seem to show any links!
Here are some more detailed images of the armor:
