    Now with all this extra time decided to clean my swords. I love shiny blades

    Shouldn't. Are you sure you're not eating away at the copper on your jag instead?

    I have a bore scope and can see those buggers. They don’t come off that easily. I also have a small ultrasound cleaner so pistols are no problem but rifles are bear to clean

    Nice, No Shin or Kyu ??

    It's all there, these are made from 1450 to 2003 although 1450 is a borderline Kyuto

    From the Top: Tachi by Okimasa ~1960
    Katana by Kanenori ~1450s
    Katana by Kaneaki ~1938
    Wakizashi by Sukesada ~1550s
    Wakisashi by Kanekage ~1660s
    Tanto by Narimichi 2003

    Katana like to have a Wakizashi 4th 5th from the top. Don't know if i could swing a big blade a round any more but i could work a smaller one. Very nice collection.

    But my favorite one the first one by Okimasa, It's long, wide, thick and very sharp. When you swing it you get the feeling you can split a person in half easily.:innocent0

    Beautiful, it amazes me how a sword can be 400+ years old and still look almost new. Have one from the late 1400's with hardly any rust on the blade.
