Hello all!
I am new to the forums and this is my first post. I hope that I do it right
. Seeing some of y'alls collections, which are amazing, has made me want to be a part of the fun!
Spanish Artilleria Nacional Toledo Swords
French Artillery sword ~1838
Horstmann/Weyerberg-Kirschbaum Model 1840 Cavalry sword
Dragoon sword 1833 N.P. Ames cutlery Springfield Mass.
French Naval cutlass ~1833
About this sword: I acquired this sword many years back while helping restore an old barn. I found the sword in the barn and the owner gave it to me after I told him I was a collector!
Kaneyoshi Katana
About this sword: I acquired this sword in the summer of 2016. This piece was my first Japanese blade. I have a deep fondness for it.
Kanemoto Wakizashi
About this sword: I acquired this sword in the summer of 2018. This is a koto wakizashi that has been attributed as a later generation Mino Kanemoto work (circa 1573) by the NTHK(NPO). It was given 72 points. This has very typical workmanship for the Kanemoto group. This blade also has an Edo period koshirae. The tuska has been restored in a two tone tsukamaki style. The rest of the koshirae looks to be original Edo period. The tsuba is a Mito example of good quality. There are copper shi shi dog menuki. The fuchi is iron and the kashira is horn. Very representative of one of the 5 gokaden.
Unknown Wakizashi

About this sword: This is my most recent purchase. I have named this sword “Dawn” after the sword of a character in my book. Dawn is my traipsing sword. When I go out onto my property I proudly carry this sword on my hip.
