I recently bought the Paul Chen Tea Culture Daisho http://www.swordsofmight.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=583 http://www.swordsofmight.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=584, and I am not at all fond of the new Sageo PC is using, so I will be replacing it. Here is where I am having trouble, I don't want to go with black, and I am having some trouble picking out a color that would best suit these swords. I am looking here http://www.shadowofleaves.com/Sageo.htm all the way at the bottom (the $20 range). What I was thinking was the Gold Brown, Brown, or Green in the Kakuchu Sstyle. Or Green, Black/Green, Black/Gold, Black/Brown, Brown/Gold, Green/Gold, Gold/Black, or Gold/Brown in the Shigeuchi Style. I am thinking Gold and Brown cause they match the fittings on the swords, and Green to represent the color of the Tea. I am leaning twards the Green Shigeuchi Style cause the color looks better than that of the Kakuchu. Please help ~X(

I would go with the gold/brown as you suggested because it matches the fittings (visibly matches them). I wouldn't choose the green because it would visually seem out of place - when I looked at that sword I didn't think of green

well I found $40 in my wallet I forgot I had so I am going to get a couple sets and try them out, probably the Gold/Brown and the Green, and if I don't like those I will keep trying.

I'd have gone for the Gold/Black myself but whichever one you choose as favourite should be good Brian...I got a Black/Gold and a plain Gold from Mike a couple of years ago and they're pretty good too.;)
BTW
I wish I could find 40 bucks lying around that I'd forgotten about. :Praying:

I have done that quite a few times, which is odd because I don't have much money to begin with, and I usually know where every penny goes. I will probably go through a few different colors before I decide on one, I am like a kid in a candy store, I want them all, but I can only have a couple
