My grandfather was a kid during WW2. He lived about a mile / mile and a half from a scrap yard. He would always talk about sneaking into the scrap yard and sitting in plane cockpits and imagine playing with the guns. He said there were always swords and pistols / rifles, and medals throughout the yard. I can't image all the things that are just gone now. Im lucky enough to own a small collection of ww1/ww2 items. Some pieces, some people hate, some they love. To me it is all a part of the history of the world and needs to be saved.

The wooden toy you pull out at 16:26, my grand parents had several toys like that, you don't pull the string instead move the toy around in a circle and that causes the ball to swing around, and that makes the toy animate!

Really cool to see the full story of the sword. Hopefully it really is legit and someone will one day get it restored and authenticated. Pretty crazy to think that these swords were so masterfully crafted that they survive (and are still sharp) nearly 400 years later.

The seller listened to everything he said and didnt interrupt him, well done sir

“I originally paid like $150 for this chair” 😂😂 If you go back to the original video where you purchased the chair in March 2019 you said you paid $60 for it. Then you rented it twice for $45 total so all you are in it is $15 not $100. When you said “I’m not really making any money” by selling for $90 you just made $75 profit.

That's awesome! I also own a katana by the same smith, Yukihiro 1st generation or 'Ichi' as you mentioned, and Hizen is the province he is from, which has become what is now known as the Nagasaki Prefecture. I had it imported from Japan last year from a well known dealer. I paid about $8000 for it. Getting a katana properly polished again costs about $150/inch of the blade + shipping costs. I keep mine properly oiled so hopefully I never have to worry about that!

You mentioned learning new things all the time, especially when it came to the sword, I do have to say that I need to show this to a friend of mine. His late father was in WWII and brought home two swords from Japan because they were copying the Chinese swords. After watching this it is definitely something I am going to have my friend check out, would never have given it a second thought since they were knock offs so to speak...and currently they are just sitting in a closet.

From the little I know about these swords the blades were passed down through the families and after WW2 many were forced to hand them in to be destroyed. The better ones were sometimes taken a souvenirs by American troops and sent home. Thats probably were this one came from. Super cool piece..
