    Ancient Japan was influenced by china? The weapons were the same? I have something that looks like the club of the first human. I know the place were a lot of these things lying around. Its called forest. I'm a rich man

    Jean, this book is older than i. It must be old It was spoken about quenching and tempering. I wanted to clear the difference between.

    Looks like a gunto. Is this a mark over the mekugi ana? And i think i see a signature on the nakago. Not a old blade and no metal same I think but i didn't know....

    Thank you Jean, but for me it did not look like lacquerd ray skin. What skin is it? I think it's metal
  6. vajo
    Looks old for me. I like that metal same.

    I read that post and ask myself what is so special in that sword to discuss? I think Flemming, it is the story that you tell us. But i learned that i buy a sword not a story. But it is fun to read and discuss.

    Is there a limit in buying, collecting and enjoying art? Our currencies worldwide goes worthless, more and more. If you have enough to live why to spare more and more money on the bank? The nex crash will come - enjoy your life. Thats what i think.

    Thats a lot of story for this sword I hope it was very cheap?

    Can you show a picture from the nakago without the habaki from both sides?
  12. vajo
    Tsuka and Saya didn't look unique for me. The parts look like they did not fit together. The habaki is to small. Die sarute peg doesn't fit. Maybe the sword is built from different parts?

    You found that 3 years old thread to tell us that information. Wow! Incredable What ist the conclusion now? I'm confused.

    Namban Dragons

    vajo posted a topic in Tosogu

    Hello, i have a Namban tsuba with a dragon theme. On the front side the two dragons look on something that looks like a rice pot or a nut? I have no idea about that tsuba. Maybe it isn't a Namban. Overall it is a very heavy tsuba with a lot of gold. 70 x 65 mm mimi: 5 mm Have a nice sunday!

    Thank you Alex for your opinion. Very helpful!

    Hi Alex. This could be possible. But the smaller Mekugi-ana is very near on the bo-hi. What do you think about the time?

    Hi there today i recieved my wakizashi that i bought few days ago. It is in very nice polished condition with shira saya. The blade is 44 cm long with bo-hi that goes from the nakago to the kissaki. The hamon is a very nice choji midare I think it is a Koto sword, muromachi period, Bizen school, but i'm not sure. The blade is mumei.

    This sword was bought by my friend, as i wrote. I'm not the owner. I was interested in reading the signature. I didn't know why christian is making a mystique about that blade? My friend bought it for 850 EUR. So, if christian knows anything he can wrote something. But, I did not think that someone will surprised about what he have to say. I belive that christian want only make some "ramba zamba", not more.
  21. vajo
    I understand. It should be better to blend Karls e.g. Christians Informations out, because they are nonsense. :-)
  22. vajo
    As you know more than we, please clear it. What is wrong with that blade? Who is the anonymus Karl? Why is this blade circle around. :-)
  23. vajo
    He said the name of the guy was Kai Uwe not Karl? correct Christian?
  24. vajo
    @Christian I will show you the mumei Waki which i want to buy. Maybe you know more
  25. vajo
