  1. Three reasons for buying a sword. Age, Price and do you like it? This one to me comes along the lines of, do you like it?
  2. Just one more please. A close up of the Hamachi area.
  3. Glenn, if you could, would you please take a photo of the blade without the habaki? Also, a photo of the Kissaki. Thanks.
  4. G'day Glenn, Your sword is signed Hiromitsu, I believe. The sword appears to be an older sword, that has been shortened (Suriage+ Machiokure). It's hard to guess the age from your photo's, however, as a guess I would say mid Muromachi period. circa 1500.
  5. Kazu uchi mono, like all swords, come in various shapes and quality. Unlike showato, these swords paper. But hey, it's only my opinion. Personally I don't care one way or the other.
  6. Depends on how they are cared for. Showing one example doesn't prove anything.
  7. Size, Shape, signature and Hamon.
  8. Sorry John, but I've seen quite a few Kazu Uchi Mono, with date. Usually signed, Bizen (shu) (no) kuni Osafune Sukesada saku.
  9. I think this is probably a Kazu Uchi Mono, sword.
  10. G'day Nicole, Your sword is a WW2 Showato (non traditionally made). The stamp in the first photo is a Seki Stamp. Unfortunately the photo makes it hard to read. Would you take a photo of the whole Nakago (Tang). Did it come in Mounts?
  11. One is signed Kanetomo the other one Bizen Sukesada.
  12. Very hard to tell from these photo's. Is this sword from Aoi Art? If so, what papers does it have and what is the description?
  13. He also charges a re-stocking fee, for returns.
  14. The market at the moment, appears to me to be all over the place. I have several Gendaito I would like to sell, but now wouldn't even get AU 2k. Before covid, these were 2 1/2-3K. So until the market stabilises, I'll just hang on. Gendaito in particular have taken a beating.
