Swords

You’re right Brian I just get tired of being attacked We should be more courteous to one another

Amen brother

Now you have 3 down votes one more we’re tied

Hokke Now you have 2 down votes Your catching up to me

Thanks for pointing that out Hokke Dramatic ? It amazes how some people need to point out others misfortunes Thanks Dr Oz

I think I have the most down votes for anyone on the forum 4 down votes are a bit much Losing a potential buyer got to me

Firstly I want to apologize to Vajo I overreacted because I had another member who was interested In buying it and let my Irish temper get the best of me I rearranged the seppas in order largest near the tsuba and in order I noticed the habaki wasn’t flush which was part of the problem I straightened it best I could I think it’s better than it was Thanks for everyone’s help Here's a photo

I don’t mean to get upset I had a member that wanted to buy my sword Anyway it should be a quick fix Nothing wrong with the sword Steve

Yes I see I need to arrange them it a better order. Steve

Please keep your negative comments to yourself It’s the angle of the photo I took

Hi John I didn’t think that would be an issue but you’re probably right! I was worried it would turn off potential buyers But better to be up front I guess Lots of work getting seppas to fit poking myself twice making leather seppas and cutting a menuki I wouldn’t have done it without the help from others so thanks to all for the tip Yes it is a nice sword Blade is it great shape for an EDO era sword and Yes I’m selling it if anybody’s interested Steve

I agree with everyone badly shaped kissaki Totally trashed A example of a bad sword run don’t look back

I thought i would start a new thread for this sword I posted earlier I found a pice of leather to help tighten it up Now its barely any wiggle I made 2 leather seppas The one I used was trimmed nicer than the other in the photo It’s been a long and tedious job I used a Dark future polish to make it darker because of a lighter tan color I filed 3 seppas to fit and added a thicker menuki Now every thing fits and isn’t noticeable because the color blends in well I poked myself twice with the xacto knife ouch Now I’m thinking of selling it but am concerned about having adding a leather seppa and some missing material around the Menuki Other than that Blade is like mint A Beautiful hamon A nice EDO era sword I took a bunch of photos If anyone needs any I have an extra one Steve

It saves money buying more seppas that may not fit

I have a file kit I ordered from EBay 2 seppas that were too small I filed the inside diameter to make it fit I got rid of the insulation now It fits better just a little wiggle but much better If I had a piece of leather it wouldn’t probably tighten it more here’s a picture
