Vermithrax16 Posted February 27, 2018 Report Posted February 27, 2018 No idea if these are real silk but they are very pretty and nice on the eyes. Graceful even, http://www.toukenkomachi.com/index_ja_okatanabukuro.html Quote
Henry Wilson Posted February 27, 2018 Report Posted February 27, 2018 They are described as pure silk 正絹 *Said in a whisper* Stylistically each to their own I suppose... I think they look like the mother-in-law-from-hell's kimono... But that could be just me 2 Quote

Jean Posted March 24, 2018 Report Posted March 24, 2018 I keep my shirasa out of bags, I dust them once a week. Don’t see the necessity to keep them in... 1 Quote
PhoenixDude Posted March 28, 2018 Report Posted March 28, 2018 I keep all my swords in bags with a dessicant packet Quote
