  1. Even if fake, it has a price. So if it was given for free, you have something.
  2. Looks like Chris is dead?
  3. I would love to attend. Which country? Shinsa would be espectacular.
  4. But I belive the cost of making a stamp with 4 numbers instead of 5 would be the same, yet they make that kind of mistake Unless there are some legit 5 digit stamps out there. Anyway, I'm sorry for the derail, I'm just trying to learn.
  5. Chinese could make perfect replicas. My question is, why do they make those mistakes? What for?
  6. This must be done.
  7. Thank you for the info!!!!
  8. I thought oil tempered doesn't has hamon, just hada.
  9. Looks like it.
  10. I was just sharing my desire to see some WIP pictures, nothing to be sorry about I enjoyed the reading.
  11. Looks like the mekugi didn't fill the ana.
  12. Why do we have swords with 600 years on their back, yet if we don't love ours for five minutes they get rust spots?

  15. You should ask in the correct Military forum. Oretty sure you will get better answers! It looks incredible, BTW.
  16. 60+ cm nagasa makes it a katana, anytime.
  17. I didn't mean to be rude. Grey and Bruce's advice is better, I just recommend the kit for first timers because it comes with mekugi nuki and the box for storage of future oils
  18. First time I would sugest a complete kit, they are cheap and include everything you need.
  19. Well, he also said very good condition so we will see.
  20. Is that a fukure? It can be seen on both sides of the blade, next to the habaki. The seller said it has no chips or cracks as per original post so... What is that?
  21. But traditionally made?
  22. I think the name of the webpage/link should be a warning by itself
  23. Thank you for the reply. Nice to know!
