Reefishere Posted July 25, 2024 Report Posted July 25, 2024 I have more photos. Much more detail it just won’t let me upload all Quote
Geraint Posted July 25, 2024 Report Posted July 25, 2024 Dear Sherif. With just these to go on not a great deal can be said but guessing suggests that the first is gunto mounted but with a civil tsuba so possibly an earlier blade kitted out for the war, the second looks like a civil wakizashi. (This really is a guess but might be signed Sadayuki.) Not sure what Zyn is but using it anywhere near a Japanese sword might be a 'sin', fittings included. You might find it easier to post more images if you resize your photographs. Look forward to seeing some more. All the best. Quote

Thanks for the help so far ! Quote
Bugyotsuji Posted July 25, 2024 Report Posted July 25, 2024 Consider cropping out 2/3 of the unnecessary stuff from your shots. Where are you storing them? If uploading from a phone camera, you will be given a choice of size, so go one less than maximum. Quote
robinalexander Posted July 25, 2024 Report Posted July 25, 2024 Another reduction method (in my simpleton way) I have found useful is to take a picture, then go to your Gallery...open the same picture....take a screen shot of it.....a couple of times if you wish.....the meg's just reduce dramatically with each 'copy'.
