  1. I dont display mine, I keep them locked away. I do display a gunto but i wouldnt risk having something more valuable sitting out.
  2. Hah! Hah! I used to watch Kenshin when I was a kid! Anyways, I think its just a oddly reshaped kissaki. Everything else about it looks normal. It also looks like it was damaged near the Hamachi as well.
  3. I have a set of kodogu thats signed Fuji Joju (Kao), I havent heard of the Fuji school until now and was wondering about it, the kanji used for Fuji is the same as the To in goto, so I was wondering if there were any ties between the two.
  4. Hi, Im looking on information about the Fuji School of sword fitting makers. Any input is appreciated.
  5. Lol somebody must have REALLY loved beets. or whatever that is...
  6. GS didn't say anything about them either way, just that they will not accept a return on the item as per policy, and stopped responding to my emails.
  7. Sounds like we need to find someone in Japan who can set up local shell accounts and be a liazon for us gaijin on the boards.
  8. Seiyudo has told me their policy is no returns, they will not accept it back.
  9. So i took these menuki to the 2017 jssc token kai and submitted them to shinsa, and unfortunately they failed. The pink slip confirms they are cast, and so did many people i consulted with at the show. I am beyond irritated. I would have expected more from a store in the ginza district, especially one as well known as seiyudo.
  10. Any pics of the blade, curvature and hamon
  11. sheesh cant make a joke around here....
  12. Grey, got any phoenix or incense related items in your FS stuff? How about any moroha or kanmuri otoshi tanto?
  13. Its only accurate up to 18mm. After that who knows where the round will go.
  14. I have finished laquering a menuki box. this is my first box, and i think it came out pretty damn sharp. ​If anyone is interested, its for sale, because I have plenty of boxes here to practice on.
  15. is this a o-suriage tachi?
  16. Yay! Im definitely coming! Any chanse of a shinsa event?
  17. I applied it in layers, layer 2 was a mix of red and diatomaceous earth at 1:1, then successive layers of red and then black at a 1:2 ratio to turpentine, then finished it with a French polish that I would let sit for a few minutes and then wipe off with a wet cotton cloth dipped in a mixture of water and a bit of detergent. Then a final polish with auto polish.
  18. Mejiro's Red and Black Pure Urushi, and yeah it wrecked my hands and knees at first until i started wearing a latex glove, wool glove and another latex glove on top of that, plus a pair of medical scrubs. My hands looked like the child of quasimoto and the elephant man for a while there.
  19. yeah i collect phoenix tosogu
  20. my two favorites
  21. Price Drop to 3,200 USD, OBO.
