Lucked on to this stringer of caps, I do not see any signatures on these. How often did they change out the fittings in the old days? Were these gold covered when produced or just highlighted in gold? Any comments would be welcome.
Thanks,
Bob

Recently inherited a sword that my greatgrandfather acquired during his time in the pacific during WW2.
Trying to get a translation of the tang signature.
There is:
1) A small symbol with finer lines, sort of hard to see.
2) Three larger symbols.
Thank you in advance for any help.

Hello all.
I got another tanto . After a friend got the tsuka of of it was signed Kaneyasu but could members help with era and which smith it is?
Many thanks
Peter
Perhaps i should have said i bought this tanto a while back but had to send it to a friend to remove the tsuka as it was glued and i was doing more damage than good. He sent me the image of the me hense the poor quality image i posted.
I could get him to send more if required.

I am very new to sword collecting, in fact this is my first (hopefully) authentic piece. Please take a look and let me know what you think. Any info good or bad is better than none. I have always been interested in the Japanese Samurai and would just like to learn more about the making and history of the best edged weapons ever made.
