Brian Posted November 19, 2022 Report Posted November 19, 2022 Found this sword on..of all places...TikTok. It's at a US dealer. I wanted to try and assist with a translation of the sayakagi and papers, and see if they align. Can anyone assist? Thanks Quote

Stephen Posted November 19, 2022 Report Posted November 19, 2022 What is he asking? Sword pic? I only go to TT for T&A 1 Quote
Brian Posted November 19, 2022 Author Report Posted November 19, 2022 Thanks Ray. The guy tagged you in the TT. He’s asking $3500. Polish looks good. I wonder if the papers belong to that sword. Would need to see nakago pics. Not a bad price if it’s ok. Sayagaki is optimistic I guess. Any idea who did it? 1 Quote
Ray Singer Posted November 19, 2022 Report Posted November 19, 2022 Hi Brian, I believe the sayagaki is purporting to be Kunzan. 1 Quote

Nobody Posted November 20, 2022 Report Posted November 20, 2022 I suspect that the sayagaki mighi be fake. There is an unbelievable typo. 2 1 Quote
