Advice or info neede

[rasjid]

Hi,

Need advice for my only katana in my possession. Just recently the hilt binding come off due to age.

A friend of mine is coming from japan by next and I'm thinking to ask him a favour to bring back to Japan to fix it. He lives in Chiba. Any advice or person that can do this job? Do I need to specify specific hilt binding material or names for this hilt?
So they can do the job as original as they can.


Thanks in advance.
Regards

I am under the impression some Gunto can be confiscated in Japan, as non art swords unless registered?

Expert advice definitely needed..

Ok noted, but I dont think this type is being confiscated in Japan.
Anyway, planning to bring the handle only. If anyone got further info, I would like to hear more.

Thanks
