  14. modern, and very expensive
  15. Its in the shape of early tsuba
  16. The internet has levelled the world market. Yahoo, ebay and jauce. Very common, very affordable on this platforms

  20. When you have a good reputation, then your work is in good demand. Its a problem through out all trades. Wait for good work or take a gamble and tryone with a short list" normally for a reason ".
  21. I continually enjoy your words of observation and intelligence jussi. You not just add substance to a topic but unbiased opinions that can only help lift up all your fellow members knowledge

  24. im going the complete opposite direction it appears cheap, nasty machine rolled backstrap thats been then shaped. the rest is just poor. blade has no threaded pommel or peg holding to togeather and the blade " if you call it that, just a flat piece of bar " isnt evan fitting to the handle correctly so most likely just glued in. its modern rubbish in my opinion. theres sooooo much of this crap comming out in the last 15 years its not funny. dont wast your money
