  1. very good point
  2. its nice, but 100k nice ??
  3. not to drag away from john, but simple look at the sword!!!!! its not a flag level sword
  4. Its not a admirals flag sword, take it with a pinch of salt
  5. if it was shoshin it wouldnt be for sale on juace. it most likely has been resubmitted for shinsa and failed, but that aside its pleasing to look at
  6. iv only ever seen white peaple do that, iv never seen a Japanese person do this. evan doing kantei on 100k ko bizen swords. its just comon manners not to talk over swords

    in australia, you could leave out the names and we still could know whom you are speaking of. there togishi and then theres togishi.
  8. circumstance would prevent this. dont ask why... it wasnt a greek roman orgy but still none the less a hurry
  9. that was on a samsung, sent to the computer via messanger, then saved then re orentated and then saved and still sideways ??
  10. how did i go this time ? fingers crossed its MuneTada?? once again the photo wont stay up right?? Regards Hamish
  11. i assume these will make it to your ebay page aswell?? if so would there be any donations to the nmb for advancing the sellibilty of these swords
  12. Bent and curled round. Not a good sign, either no hamon in the kissaki or bad tempering
  13. imho this has had a koshirae restoration. the gilt and finsih on the fittings ar at 75% while the conditon on the saya and ito are 100%. and the one on aoi has been punched in on the seppa and tsuba. this seems to be a increasing activitie from Japan to sell to the unsuspecting. i personally perfur my gunto to be 100% original and un touched
  14. Condition of the mounts is hard to find or fix. Condition of the blade is fixable but you might have to take a loss if you sell in the future. Or leave as is and enjoy
  15. Bit annoyed that my pun got overlooked. Seki-to, showa-to, murata-to..... Now entre the fake-to. Its got to a catfish post. Blind Fred knows it utter crap
  16. the mei reads seki-ju oka-da kane-yoshi saku the smith made showato by the books, but theres no stamp
  17. yours has a almost light foggy ghosty reflection, a true sign of the paints age. the one discussed projects pure high gloss. and im not saying theres anything wrong with restortation. but if your paying premeum prices you want original. look at the same and habaki. never seen use or dayligh hahahha. but once again im not putting it down, but would just like to put forward my opinion that its not original
  18. personally its fishy to me. the tsuba has been punched in and 1 seppa too. the paint on the saya is just toooo pristine, and the ito doesnt show a clean enough exicution for a early high end type 94. imho its been restored, and theres nothing wrong with that if you dont mind.
  19. Z for zoro ??
  20. i once hada a Kanenaga when first collecting 20 plus years ago, sold it cheap at a gunshow and have been kicking myself ever since, if its still around in a few weeks we will chat. great example
  21. I wouldnt want to try and import 1
  22. That would be annoying having that flop around while in use
  23. Can we have pics of the hada and hamon please. Kissaki and yokote pllllleeease
