thanks Bruce, much appreciated.

the tang looks pre ww2?

hi there, ive been offered another relic. poor condition and maker un known. may i have Your opinions please? thank You in advance

hi Paul, yes i will be patient, for now i will source the missing parts like the tsuka, tsuba, seppa... ive decided to keep the sword and in time get it polished. im so grateful for everyones help.. main thing is it can be restored.if thats the case. kind regards, Andy

brilliant! thanks Lewis. i think i will stick with this sword and find a polisher. i owned an Emura 5 years ago, it was mint. sold it for 5000.00. got this one for 550.00 au. I Love His swords.

hi Paul, so its saveable but wont be perfect on the kissaki? i want to save this sword, but i dont have thousands to spend on a the kissaki and polish.. does anyone know some one who can help out?

i hope these photos can give You a better idea of condition.

hi Jean, i really appreciate that info. because i feel it could be saved,though im not a expert. i will take photos as You mentioned and get advice... will post the photos and upload them soon. kind regards, Andy

oh no, such a shame. its would have been a really nice sword.. i payed 550.00 au for it. i guess i can make some money back if i sold the Saya. i will use it as a practice sword to polish it myself.. cant hurt now.. thank You so much for Your imput.

Hi there, i just got this Emura blade. came with ww2 saya and no tsuka,tsuba,seppa etc. the blade has been damaged at the tip as someone has tried to use sand paper or something. my question is can it be repaired? several years ago i heard of People on this site who can do polishing at a lower price but still at a decent standard. or are there other options? any advice or imput would be greatly appreciated.

beautuful Hamon if poloshed. sadly someone has tried to clean the tip.with sandpaper or something...

hi there Cisco San, the sword is still in postage and yet to arrive. the hamon looks good in the photos even though it's hard to see, but the overall look of the blade is rough.. I want to get a custom shirasaya for the blade as there is no tsuka .i will post photos when it arrives
