New To The Market For The Tampa Show

[Grey Doffin]

Hi Guys,

My business partner Mark Jones and I have recently taken in 40 tsuba out of the Skip Holbrook collection and a significant group of swords.  The tsuba are from those that Skip had decided to keep for himself when, a few years ago, he parted out a large chunk of his collection that I sold on my website.  Some wonderful pieces here.  Same with the swords: haven't been on the market for years and 1st class quality.

I don't have a list; sorry.  They will be available for the 1st time when they go on our tables next week in Tampa.  Come by and have a look.

Thanks Grey

Hello again,

I have begun listing the swords.  Just finished with a 29" Yokoyama Bizen katana with near pristine gunto koshirae and earlier this week I listed an o-suriage koto Bizen wakizashi with dragon koshirae (this blade is quite good and should be paid attention) and a spectacular, 28" katana by Gendai smith Yoshihara Kuniie.  In the coming days I will be listing others; have a peek if you're interested.

The new swords will have numbers that start with K.  If any of them catches your eye please contact me by email through my site, not by personal message.

Thanks,  Grey
