Guido Posted March 20, 2019 Report Posted March 20, 2019 * 23/8/2017 Tachi sent for polishing * 9/10/2017 Shina Only 6 weeks from sending it to the polisher to submitting it for shinsa? Did you pay a hefty premium to the polisher, or threatened him to smash his knee caps with a baseball bat? Quote
MAXBLISS888 Posted March 20, 2019 Author Report Posted March 20, 2019 Only 6 weeks from sending it to the polisher to submitting it for shinsa? Did you pay a hefty premium to the polisher, or threatened him to smash his knee caps with a baseball bat? Haha... I didn’t.. To clarify, the Tachi was already in polished. However, Paul has inspected the Tachi carefully and found 4 small scuffs and therefore has recommended a polish. Glad that Paul has spotted them... 1 Quote
Guido Posted March 20, 2019 Report Posted March 20, 2019 Ah, o.k., that explains it. Still, it's not easy to find a polisher who's willing to do just a "touch-up polish", i.e. nugui-naoshi, many want to the take the polish back a few more stages. I know two who do it, but they prefer that it stays a secret, apparently it's frowned upon by other polishers . Oh, and of course congratulations on your successful shinsa! 1 Quote
Gakusee Posted March 20, 2019 Report Posted March 20, 2019 Francis, well done on the outcome - you must be thrilled! And to respond to the the title of the thread - yes, I do like your tachi! Paul has also helped me with polishes, with Juyo and Hozon and TH shinsa and all sorts of matters. He is an outstanding individual! Congratulations on your success. 2 Quote

Surfson Posted March 20, 2019 Report Posted March 20, 2019 I am most impressed that it only took six weeks to get the sword polished. Was this by a juyo grade polisher? Great story and congratulations! 1 Quote
