    peter posted a topic in Nihonto

Thank you for any help or pointers. Peter

    But has anyone had the misfortune of having to claim of a broker and how did that go? Peter
  12. peter
    Hello all, Do any UK residents have any input on this, I did change my broker and declared the value of my pieces all included on my house policy . I did get a UK dealer to do a valuation on the items I had at the time but the brokers never asked for a copy so I am in doubt on which way things would go if the worst happened, Peter

    Thank you Jean, Jacques and Ray . for the little push to look and try harder. case closed? and more learned. Peter

    ok Jean i will bite. i think the yasurime should be better executed . the blades seems shinto or shin shinto but the mei looks a little fresh . Peter
  16. peter
    Ray, I had another look and seems its down to the photograph, the yasurime seems katte sagari at first glance but with a few vertical lines running down the nakago to the mekugi ana, not at all uniform, more checkered, the returns to katte sagari almost kiri. Peter
