For real? Should I have this sent to kantei? This is making me think it may be more important than I was assuming it was.

Who is this Goto Shichibei Kiyoharu guy?

Both of these kozuka are thick solid material, not plated. that's about all I can tell you about them. The spine of the copper one says 千四百五. aka 1405. I think the back says: 千不二六十七翁月人子 富隨X Which I believe the signature is supposed to be from a guy named 齋藤富隨 or Saito Fuzui?

Havent gotten it yet. It may be iron, seller wasnt sure.

I dont mean to pressure you or anything but I really think this sword is exactly what you are looking for. Its antique, made in Japan, and was originally made for iado practice in the first place. http://www.ebay.com/itm/322490797869

Best Ways To Ship A Sword
PhoenixDude replied to PhoenixDude's topic in General Nihonto Related Discussion
Pelican makes some great cases. Just sayin. -
I wont comment on specific sellers but yeah a wak in good polish will average about 2k, katana about 3. I was of the understanding you meant 1k or less.
-
So start with a coat of tung and then apply subsequent coats of red until opaque and then black to the same criteria?

"You can get real nihonto as cheap as a grand on Ebay... something that will never be papered or lusted after." Eh.. Im not trying to be a douche or anything, but if you see a real nihonto on ebay for sub 1k its either A: a rusty shelalie. B: not nihonto.
