Katana Koa Isshin Mantetsu after the torture of "bad owners".
Antiques are called eternal values, because if you carefully handle valuable items from the past, they can make a profit for centuries.
Having met with "bad owners" on their way, antique items, if they survive, then they become disabled.
The "bad owners"
understand the value exclusively in monetary terms.
Everyone knows about antiques, because they have seen it in a box by satellite and have been to museums.
Their favorite tools are a hammer, a file, a drill and a pemolux.
And the main source of information is the program "Incredible Stories" on the NTV channel.
Katana is
the most recognizable
type of long - bladed cold weapon in Hollywood films .
This katana went through the tortures of the "bad owners" and received multiple injuries and scars.
The katana fell into the hands of the "bad owners" as a trophy after the Second World War.
And at some point in time they decide to check the Katana for authenticity.
The possession of sacred knowledge from unknown sources that a real katana should cut nails tore the consciousness of
"Bad owners" and once
it burst out.
the very first attempt to dismember the nail was unsuccessful, only a narrow dent remained on the nail, after carefully examining the trace on the blade, it immediately became clear to the "bad owners" that the reason was poor sharpening, and with the help of a grinding machine, the katana was sharpened in the manner of a table knife, while removing the edge at the edge and the blade, and also in a few minutes completely destroying the polishing of the blade, which takes about a month of hard work for the polishing master.
and attempt number two follows ,
after which the blade is chipped and the mekugi bamboo pin holding the blade and the handle breaks the fastening hole and breaks.
At this stage, the "bad owners" had to interrupt the experiments on testing the katana for authenticity due to the impossibility of subsequent
use.
The word restoration was absolutely unknown to the "bad owners", so they limited themselves to repairs on the principle of doing not as it was, but from what is at hand.
A bolt was inserted into the broken hole in the handle instead of a broken bamboo pin, having worn off the head.
While the katana for torture was taken out of the scabbard, they forgot to press the lock button and pulled out the teardrop-shaped tongue of the lock, and there was not enough material and knowledge for repair.
Together with the lock, the mouth of the scabbard was torn out, fixed on screws, and for reliability, nails were inserted instead of screws, probably those who participated in the torture.
Thus, the applied and collectible values of this katana were destroyed by the "bad owners".
