26 April, 2023  Mr,VC (Canada)

I just wanted to let you know that the package has arrived safely and that the sword was beyond my expectations. The only thing of note was that the shirasaya was really loose and the blade slid out when I picked it up. I’ve already fixed that and everything else was fine. If I’m ever looking for another sword, I’ll definitely check out your products first.
Regards,

Thanks for a such wonderfull piece of Japan history and an interesting piece of study of its smithing school.
It is everything perfect as usually. Super fast ship, super carefully done package, and super clear communications.
It is important understand that some minor "defects" are not real defects, but plus of traditional swordmaking and other "defects" are nithing more than plus of the time flow.

Now I am starting to save some money again to buy another Japanese sword.
I am looking for a Nagamaki with an ubu nakago, not a nagamaki-naoshi.
If you know someone that has one for sale for a reasonable price please let me know.
I will be watching the E-Sword website. Thank you again, it was a pleasure doing business with you.
I look forward to another successful business transaction with you.
Have a good day sir,


3 July. 2017  Mr.R (USA)

I received the Yari and the Koshirae in very good condition!


I am very happy with the product and the service!
I am interested in buying another Omi Yari that is from the Koto era and has a nagasa (spear blade length) of 74 cm or longer.
I can afford the price of up to $4000.00 US dollars. I see you have another Omi Yari for the price of 750,000 Japanese yen.
I can not afford that price but should one become available in my price range I will be interested in purchasing it.


Thank you very much, and have a good day.

22 Jun. 2015  Mr. O (Norway's photographer)

Dear Sir,

I just want to inform you about, that I have received the Ichijo school tsuba.

I’m very happy with the quality and I must say that your pictures did not make this tsuba justice.

I am a photographer and I hope you don’t find me rude to give some input regarding this matter.

Many Nihonto websites make the items they sell look better in photo than they are in real life.

I’m used to judging photo, but most people are not and are easily fooled.

With this Ichijo school tsuba it was the opposite and I was looking at this tsuba for months, but thought it looked to dirty to be interesting.

When I now hold it in my hand, I can see that it is absolutely nothing wrong with it.

This is meant as a friendly advice regarding photographing tsuba and kodogu.

I think the photographs of the swords on your website is perfectly fine.

The easiest way to make nice images of tsuba and kodogu, is to make sure that the flash/daylight is reflecting in parts of the items.

That makes it so more easy to judge the condition and patina of the metal and the items looks much better.

It is also important that the images are color corrected to daylight to get the correct colors on the items.

Please feel free to contact me if you like to get some more detailed information on how to do the pictures.

You where kind to give me substantial discount on this tsuba and this is my way of showing that I appreciate your kindness.

I include here some quick images I did of the tsuba after I lightly cleaned it a little, to show me my point.
I have not done any retouch on the images and it took less than 10min. to do.

This is the picture on your website.


Here is if I put the light in a to low position, but the image is color corrected og the right exposed.




This is the correct way in my opinion, with more reflection, and this is also more the correct way it appears when I see it in reality.
Now it easy to see the full beauty of this tsuba.



 




As I said, I hope I not have offended you in any way with this input and please feel free for you or your photographer, to contact me if there is a need for more detailed instructions.

Thank you so much for your business and please Sir, do contact me if you come across more Ichijo Sekka-mon tsuba or kodogu!

I am also looking for a reasonably priced hira-zukuri long wakizashi or katana.
Preferably in a reasonably good polish, but to keep the price more modest, in shirasaya, mumei and with some flaws are acceptable.
I will keep a look at your website, but if you come across some sword which might be to low quality for you to want to post it on your site or also otherwise, please do not hesitate to contact me any time.

Best regards

 

10 Jun. 2015  Mr. S (Germany)

I got the sword today, it is really beautiful and its a great honor for me.

Nihonto arrived via Fedex without any problems yesterday. The Blade and koshirae looks wonderful and I am very satisfied with it.

I am very pleased to have made business with you and I surely will come back to you for some more swords to buy.

Therefore, I would kindly like to ask: I am looking since a long time for a Kyu-Gunto with traditionally made blade and metal koshirae in good condition. Do you see the opportunity to offer such a sword ?


17 Apr. 2008  Mr V(Russian who lives in China)

Thank You for Your message.

I am from Russia. My family and I are living in China for more than 10 years. I am a representitive of a Russian company (pharmaceuticals). My son has gratuated from a university in Beijing. He married a Russian girl (a representitive of a Russian company too).

Regarding swords.

Yours item was not the first I have received from abroad.

Before ordering swords from abroad I have contacted with my police department and the customs (EMS and post customs). I advised them that I am going to import the above items only for my collection, I would not do business with the swords, I will pay tax (10%) from the CIP value of the goods. The customs approved my import.

As I know in case of importing of a weapon like a sword, knife and so on one must arrange a letter from police department to the customs, I have saw such a letter in the customs, issued for a Beijing citizen.
Importing of cold weapon (as I unrestand) is not prohibited in China, especiaaly if it is an antique. Usage of such items (and arranging of the letter)is the police consideration.

In any case please take into consideration that situation in China is favourable to the foreigners.

Waiting good news from You.


2008年4月17日  Mr V(Sweden)

21 Feb. 2008  Mr E(USA)

Thank you for your email. I am looking for swords by two (2) different sword families: First is the Horii group starting with Taneyoshi and ending with the current member, Tanetada Horii. Within this group are the Mikasa swords made from the steel of the Mikasa battleship. I am also looking for any of the small memorbilia that was offered as souvenirs also made from the steel of the battleship. There are small cannons, airplanes, helmets, ect that were made from excess steel from this ship. Also the second group of swords of interest are the Gassan group starting in the Shinshinto era with Sadakazu San and ending with the current member from Nara. If you have anything from the above "want list" could you please contact me or Dr Wada San who is helping me with my collecting. Respectfully.

I am pleased to tell you that both swords have finally arrived and they are in safe keeping with my friends. I was lucky to have the opportunity to see the swords as I have just recently visited England and they are both more amazing then I could imagine.

I am reading as much material as I can on all the different aspects Japanese swords so that I have a better understanding of the two blades you have sent me.

Once again can I thank you for all your help and satisfaction with your company. I hope in the next few months to find a Tachi with nagasa roughly 85 cm, strong koshi-zori, and slender low shinogi.

Pleasure to have your acquaintance.

Best Wishes

on the certificate ?

Thanks so much.
I Hope to deal with you again.

I am sending you this message
to let you know that I received the sword today in good condition and that I
am satisfied and pleased with this sword (wakizashi Kijuu 0610-2020). So
everything is okay! I just want to make a small recommendation for your
future customers that you use even more plastic cushion/packing materials to
keep from moving around/damage inside the box. American Post Office is very
careless, they throw packages around! Especially protect the ends; that will
save you potential troubles in the future. I have had two saya damaged
(split open) by the US Post Office in past years. But Kijuu, everything
okay! I will recommend your service to others; thank you for this sword...


20 Feb. 2007  Mr R (British who lives in Turkey)

I am pleased to let you know that the sword has arrived in Marmaris without any damage.

It arrived last week and on Friday I went to the post office to collect but unfortunately customs will not release it to me. As is common with Turkish authorities critical information of importance is only given when it is too late.

I am currently trying to correct the matter but this may take a few days, the sword will remain in bonded customs in Marmaris. I am told by customs that if I cannot resolve this matter within one month it will have to be sent back to your address. I am not pleased with this and they should have told me when I enquired before it's purchase.

If this is the case please accept my humble apologies for any inconvenience this may cause. Any charges this may incur I shall accept.

I will let you know exactly what it happening in the next few days.

On a more positive note the post office allowed me to examine the sword on Friday and I can say that the pictures of this sword on your web site do not do the sword justice, it is more beautiful than I could have imagined. Holding it up to the light to reveal the full colour of the hamon can only be compared with looking at silk at different angles. I feel privileged to just see an authentic Japanese katana with my own eyes.The post office officials say that they have never seen something so beautiful.

One last concern I noticed that the papers of authenticity are not with the sword, is this because it must kept in Japan or has has it been misplaced when customs searched the package ?

Please do not let this cause too much worry, I am definitely hoping to purchase wakizashi kanetada item number 0650-2009 please make a reservation when I next e-mail you.

Many thanks.

27 Jul. 2006  Mr V (Italy)

today I have received the sword, finally!!!

I had some problem with customs but I resolved everything by myself (in my
country it's said: who does it alone, does it for 3).

I really thank you for all: for the figures (great for collecting or for my
nephew); thanks for the maintenance kit; thanks for the sword bag; thanks
for the blue square cloth with the family mon (I don't know...what is this
cloth with the mon ?).

You've been correct and prompt, gentle and kind. What a wonderfull person!
Thanks again for all and I hope we will deal again (as I will regain money I
will buy a tsuba for it).

Best regards and have a good summer.

p.s.: when you will decide to spend your holiday in Italy, I will make my
best to attract you in Sicily, my wondeefull land!


30 Jun. 2006  Mr F (Canada)

Just to let you know the sword has arrived safely. Thank you very much.

Now I want to let you know that the package was damadged I am lucky that the sword was not damadged.
I think you need to reinforce the package with a lenght of wood so that it will not bend for future shippments..

Sword collectors always ask for the provenance of a sword [ History] because it adds to the ownership of the sword. Question Can you tell me where the yukiHiro blade came from and who the previous owners were It makes collecting that much more interesting to know the story behind the sword

Please let me know if you have any more Hizento, TadaYoshi or TadaHiro Etc.
