D McCutcheon Posted October 13, 2014 Report Posted October 13, 2014 hello all, I am danny and im new to the Japanese sword collectors community, I currently have a wakizashi im researching and an NCO shin gunto thats had the original Japanese army fittings removed and its saya painted black its got tsuba and fittings but they seem fairly low quality reproductions. that said its a nice blade though id say the tangs been recently cleaned and theres only a faint what looks like a chrysanthemum low down on the tang. Im on the lookout for a prettier katana in polish that wont break my bank but thats for later for now im going to focus on the wakizashi and increasing my knowledge base. Hope I wont be a total pain to all you old hands too:) Quote
