HI,
As a newcomer, I have my first question:
I found in my safe I had stored away for awhile, a set of 3 Tiger swords which I found similar to the Elite Tiger sword made currently for Bugei.
I don't have any papers on when or whom I got these from so I need to ask for help.

On the Katana, it has a tag on it and I need to know if this is a Pre CAS or Pre Hanwei or Pre Iberian made.
Here are the pictures of the tag - both sides:

Thanks!
 
The horse logo is Hanwei. Call Bugei (or email the photos) and they may be able to better place it in time.
 
Thanks Horseclover!
I will get some more photos taken.
Does anyone know about how much they are worth ?
I have the set of Tiger: Katana, Wakizashi & Tanto
 
I'm not positive about this, but I think you've got Hanwei swords there, not Bugei. They are still pretty nice swords though. At retail, all three would probably run around $1500 - $2000. On the secondary market, who knows. All depends on condition and finding the right buyer i guess.
