16k Posted December 15, 2019 Report Posted December 15, 2019 For those of you looking for one at a reasonable price, I saw this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/WWII-Japanese-Army-general-officers-sword-tassel/254449203647?hash=item3b3e5ab9bf:g:bNsAAOSwPeRd5M~0 I think it’s the real deal. Quote
hxv Posted December 15, 2019 Report Posted December 15, 2019 Real deal, from China? I don’t think so. Hoanh Quote
reeder Posted December 15, 2019 Report Posted December 15, 2019 I have a tough time with tassels but they did buy all of the swords from US sellers last decade... Quote
PNSSHOGUN Posted December 16, 2019 Report Posted December 16, 2019 An aged replica. Real ones have tightly woven and neat crowns. Replica on the right. 1 Quote
16k Posted December 16, 2019 Author Report Posted December 16, 2019 Wow! A fake? Damn, those guys are good! Sorry for the inaccurate news guys! Hey, John, where did you get your repro? I don’t think I’ve ever seen a new one for sale and since I’ll never be able to afford a genuine one... Quote
PNSSHOGUN Posted December 16, 2019 Report Posted December 16, 2019 Ebay, a few years ago. Ok for display but still far off the real ones. Quote
