They were all purchased within the UK at local auctions, antique shops or privately. They have never been submitted for shinsa. All of the works are in largely untouched condition and a professional polish would undoubtedly reveal more detail of hada, hamon and boshi. Equally the koshirae include a number of interesting tsuba and small fittings which are worthy of further study and preservation. Mellors & Kirk gratefully acknowledge the assistance of Paul Bowman in the cataloguing of this collection
