And some sort of machete, not sure what it is, was told it was from Malay peninsula,

The blade was originally painted with Jade, but it is barely visible now.

I honestly don't know much about these swords. My uncle was a sword collector, and after he died, I sort of inherited these.
 
Well if you have any Japanese ones send me pics. I have appraisers, insurers, polishers, etc... on speed dial.
 
Here's a couple I pulled out of the gun safe, I'll get more tomorrow

Sharps replica

M1 Carbine, M1 Garand T26 (tanker), M1 Garand All WW2 eraish. I've got period correct bayonets for them somewhere.

16 gauge bolt action with a clip. All I know is that is was a WW2 era German rifle that was brought over to the US and converted to a shotgun

Tameshigiri. I have a couple acres of bamboo growing on my property that I practice cut on all the time. Keeps me in shape.

As a backnote I have trained kenjutsu for 20+ years and I possess menkyo kaiden for my style. Menkyo kaiden is the right to teach/right of transmission.


I do have collector blades, my best is a 1321 Soshu Yukimitsu pushing $700,000.

If you look a few pages back you can see some of my other blades. I actually have a blade made in 1983 that is worth more than blades from the 1400's. Its not just age but the quality of the smith and the blade that determine the worth.



jesus you have some bad ass swords man, most respects ma, i love old Japanese swords
 
My Springfield XDM 40 with 5.25" barrel and 16+1 round capacity. Bought it brand new a few weeks ago:

DAMN. My grandfather had a Tanker M1 that decided to grow legs and walk away after he passed away when repairmen came around his house to make sure everything was ready to be sold. How'd you find it and how much was it?
 
New to the collection. Just added today. LWRCI M6A2 with cheap red dot and Magpul AFG2.

Went on a quest on black friday to try and pick up a ruger 10/22 takedown. I wasn't successful, but I ran into a friend at the store. Got talking and he offered me this for fixing his computer.

It's a .22lr
TOZ 17-01 made in the USSR as a training rifle for the military. Took it out and shot it and I have to say this is one very accurate .22
 
I love shooting .22's. That's awesome for fixing a computer.
