Hi John, I have a loooot of pictures. Is it Ok to post them all? Also is it OK to say who i got these from? (actually they're not yet at my place, still in the production process for the koshirae). I'll start with the whole swords, and the tang. The Hisayuki; The Nagamichi (sorry don't have a good photo of the other side of the tang); Axel PS: is there a limit to attachments on this forum?

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum, but i've been lurking for a little while. I registered now because in November last year, i decided after years of thinking/dreaming about it to go all in for a true Japanese sword. Eventually i decided on creating a daisho (in antique f/k/menuki/tsuba) but new saya and body. The swords are as follows: Dai: a tachi by Hisayuki Sho: a wakizashi by Shodai Nagamichi I'm willing to hear what you guys think of it, of the combination of the 2. And whether or not I spend my savings on something not worth it! Anyway open to any comments/critics. Also see a picture of the 2 swords below. They're certified tokubetsu kicho and tokubetso hozon. And i had the tachi sent to the NTHK-NPO for yushuto examination last year December, which it passed! And I was thinking of trying the Nagamichi this year in December. Nearly all my savings are in this, but its really been like a dream to actually own one or a pair! Thank you for viewing, Axel
