Hi All...Where is a good place to buy WWII era shin gunto style Menukis?

 

I am looking to have my Wakizashi remounted from the ground up...I have all the fittings, except 2 Menuki.

 

Like these... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Old-Original-Japanese-Sword-Katana-Gunto-Menuki-Copper-/140676956309?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item20c1000095

 

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Japanese-Sword-Shin-Gunto-Type-94-Tsuka-Menuki-/280807182308?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4161698fe4

 

Or are those links above good examples that I should look into buying?

 

Thanks!

 

-Dave

Thanks for the link!

 

So $75 on that site...the ebay listing is less.

 

Plus the ebay ones look a little more "worn" and may fit the look my old WWII fittings a little better.

 

What do you think?
