Bet he rethinks that deal after standing for six hours in line at Disneyland.
wes c LOL
Haha. Solid. True lol
You're not right with God😂😂😂
And still Max's all there credit cards out. What a waste.
wes c lmfao
I’d like to sell this piece of history my grandfather almost died getting to take my kids to Disney land
The feels
James Bailey he said it was collected after the battle
@@sooshi4560 He still easily could have died before the battle ended
But like, why did the Americans have to destroy all the Samurai swords after WWII, they destroyed/stole history
@@sooshi4560 aka stolen
Feel like he could have easily got more than 5 if he pushed for it
He said 5K was fair. Fair is fair.
I think he would’ve got 6,000 maybe more , from the 500$ drop but still another 1,000 still something , or just said lowest I can do 6500 or I’m taking home and he might just bought it lol
I was thinking at 6
John Rope pretty much this. Everything on camera has already been done and decided beforehand
He should sell it in Japan. It's worth more for the right buyer and at auction in Japan it will go through the roof.
Cmon man your grandfather passed it down to you why you gotta be like that
@IA - 09ZZ - Turner Fenton SS (2572) Yeah
He's a greedy hoar
It feels like its Scripted
Jxster I’m sure his grandfather wouldn’t have mind. He spent it not for himself but his family.
I know right
Let me call my buddy, he's an actual ninja.
Stacking Benjies ha ha good one
Stacking Benjies In fact he's standing right behind you
@@daninbox I'm afraid to look. I really hope you're joking.
My buddy lived in the early 1800's hes right across the street let me give him a call.
@@yeeeeet3252 Yeah he knows everything about the holy grails of ninja weaponry.
"I'm looking for 8 thousand"
Let Lemme give a buddy of mine a call, I'll tell him what you've just asked for, and he will surprisingly estimate anything up to that number.
"Yeah I'm okay with that"
I can give you like 10$ bucks!
Of course that what they do! But if I had something that I think was worth of great value I would ask them to “bring in your expert” and let him make the appraisal first. Then I’d see if it would be around the amount I want.
LOL

Mike Yamakasi is my second favorite after Rebecca Romney in terms of experts here.
He's better than Rebecca.
******IF I HAD TO CHOOSE WHICH ONE TO F*CK IT WOULD BE YAMAKASI. THAT VOICE IS JUST SPOT ON!******
Totally agree. He's a master at his craft. So knowledgeable. I love it
Billy Big Bollocks if only he actually spelt his last name right though? “Yamakasi” come on
I think hes better. He seems much wiser. I bet if she wasn't a girl, people would beg the difference.
"My Grampa risked his life in WW II and brought this back. Can I take my family on a vacation instead of passing down and showing my kids and grandkids some tangible world history they can't learn from a book or a computer?"
Kids gonna break it and it becomes useless..
They can always show them this video
A little judgemental, don't you think
but.. you can get some pictures of anything within seconds on a computer.
maybe show your kids pieces of history that wasn't stolen from their mainland...
I hate people that sell priceless items for a quick cash grab...
Money is all that matters for them
True True, that 5 grands seems not a big deal for him either as he’s spending it for a family pleasure, just a wicked excuse.
So easy giveup that I hate
Priceless? Lol its a useless 0bject
Even though it's priceless, I highly doubt people use it, it's probably just sitting in there house or offices, so why have something thats just sitting there when you can have some useful cash
Yeah. This stupid man doesn't worth the sword
That sword is historical artifact and he sell to go disneyland.. OMG!!
Yoyo Neen he’s dumb... sell historical for a Disney land that’s nothing but full of lines. If he really wants to sell it that badly then he should have kept pushing for more money but no he gave up easily for 5k.
“My Grandfather brought it back during WW2.”
He stole it
Survivors keepers, biotch
Like it or not, taking artifacts and memorabilia from a defeated country/nation/empire etc, is a thing that has happened for ages. Complaining about it isn't going to change it.
Ian Berry doesn’t mean you can’t do the right thing and return it to the original owners. With your rational, murders happen all the time, who’s to stop it.
theonejakespeed probably looted it from a Japanese soldier or they gave it to him out of respect which probably didn’t happen.
my grandfather had 2 samurai swords.
I have 10 pounds of gold found on a pirate ship
Rick: best I can do is $100
And I'm taking a huge risk here
Well, it's just going to sit around the shop for months and take up space.
“50$ and a half eaten McGriddle is the best I can do, and I’m taking a huge risk”
Is this real pirate gold. Or just some painted coins you made in your garage.
MyLeoIs RUDE deal!!!
Your grandfather risked life and limb. He brought back a bit of his life to pass down to his children etc.
You sold it for six months of savings.
Lmao 😂
Thats the beauty of capitalism. If u r not good enough to hold that asset, that money going to travel.
His grandfather stole it.. not just brought it back
How can you go to a place like that with a sword like that ? I would apraise the sword for auction and it would definitly go higher than 8000$ !!
@Chomag Yep I really don't think 90% of the people who comment have clue one about what a pawn shop is.
You're a sword and auction expert, I assume... Buy and sell and make a lot of money yourself, eh?
Things don't always go well at auctions it could be valued really high but without the right buyer it's not gonna sell and it still costs U to put it in auction
He wants to be waiting in line at Disney Land as fast as possible
scripted. the deal has already been made. they were just acting
Corey: "I deal with Samurai swords all the time" "Why's it made out of wood"
He was joking.
The real samurai sword dealer was the expert
Three times he said it was not a sword, but a scabbard...
He's saying it's the first time he's seen a wooden one despite dealing in the market
It's a tsunagi, a wooden replica to hold the fitting together while the actual blade is stored in shirasaya.
When his kids are older: "Dad, where's that irreplaceable family heirloom samurai sword with the very rare secret coin slot?"
Father: "I sold it to take you to Disneyland."
Kids: "O.K. thanks for teaching us some values, Dad."
Why would you never call Mike if a sword showed up in the shop. I learn so much from him. When is he getting his own show?
He had one last season but, it got CUT. Get it? Sword show...cut? Sorry.
@@OverlandOne it’s not like Hollywood tv, these guys are gonna get spin-off shows 🤣
"My grandfather lost a leg fighting the Japanese man who this belonged to. I'm going to take the money and take my family to Disneyworld."
Made fool out of that guy, I cannot believe he agreed!!
Jayakrishnan Menon yeah plus it was from WWII from his grandfather he could’ve held that for 7 generations or less
He was a fool to trade such a nice piece for a weekend at disneyland ffs
Plot twist: Those imitation coins were even older than they thought and worth more than if that had indeed been gold.
Even reproduction but still could be 100+ yo coin.
Guy: This precious family heirloom has been in my family for generations, but I'll take 2 bucks
Corey: I'll give you 50 cents and a pack of gum
Guy: Deal.
😂😂😂
It's not even his heirloom. Stolen goods from the real family
i love the fineness and the precision and level of detail with the way the wood has been carved and the intricacy of the silk and the gold inlays
“Let me call a buddy of mine, he trained in Japan’s finest dojo in the highest mountain. He’s an expert on samurai swords. Hang out for a few minutes”
Eh most Japanese dont like to lie so I prefer him over the other "experts"
Am I the only person who enjoys the way he disassemble samurai swords? It's so cool
I like the way Mike takes the handles off
@@scotthamp384 It's cool because it's the traditional way that the actual Samurai would have disassembled their swords. If you see enough episodes with Mike, he knows absolutely everything about how the blades are meant to be handled. He's my favorite expert on the show--even better than Rebecca and the coin guy.
EXPERT: this is valued at $300,000
RICK: the best I can do is $10,000, and I’m taking a huge risk here
Imagine owing a sword that’s been in your family for 500 years only for a US solder to take it and then their grandkids to sell it in a realty tv pawn show
I guess that’s a risk you take when you, ya know….BOMB Pearl Harbor!
My grandfather had one from WW2 and found a way to return it to the family in japan
I bet that's a nice surprise for the descendants of the fallen soldier.
Dam god bless ur grandfather
Chumlee gets arrested
Police officer: Sir the bail is $5000
Rick: sorry im taking a huge risk here the best I could do is $100
I would not have selled it For a theme park vacation🤦🏻♂️
*sold
Well either he passed it down and just collected but now a days we need money to do stuff he doesn’t have you use for it other than sentimental and appreciate but he had to do what was best
Want to see you in his situation.
@Hammer_of_creation no one uses "lame" anymore
@Hammer_of_creation lame
"It was my grandfather's most prized possession and he left it to me when he died. So, I rushed right over to sell it, because...PARTY TIME ON GRANDPA!!!!" That's why I'm not leaving anything behind. The greedy little fks can party on their own dime!
I don't know anything about the sward...... I want $8,000 for it.
Poor guy.. he just want money..
He said it's from his grandfather he knew it was old
At least Seth Rogen is $5000 richer
I think Mike is 1 of the more straight up experts on this show. I don't think I have seen him much on the UA-cam pawn stars scenes & it's probably because he's more honest than the others. Corey pulled another fast one with this holy trail item, and the guy should have got himself closer too 6000! I would have tried 2 deal with Mr. Kawasaki
I love how the sword expert knows where, and how hard, to smack the sword to make it come apart. He's my favorite next to REBECCA.
Cashier: Your total will be $46.50
Rick: i dunno, I’m taking a HUGE risk here. Mind having a buddy come in and take a look at it?
This dude is literally hawking a piece of history so he can take his family to Disneyland? Wow...
Giving a piece of collection and history for a lousy vacation. No wonder...! Lol
This dude really about to sell an heirloom for one week of mimosas lol
$5,000 probably wont even cover the full expense of taking a family to disneyworld hahaha
1:56 "Hey whats up CoOrrYy" lmao the voice crack
- I'm looking to get 8K for it.
- Do you know much about it at all?
- My grandpa gave it to me.
Chumlee better give me my child support and I’ve been diagnosed with Ebola
Did Chum give you aids?
Grandfather: passed down an object with real importance that if taken care of could become a piece of history.
This guy: ya I sold it for 5k so I can wait in lines at Disneyland...
Secret is..... I'm gonna offer you 8 bucks nd some magic beans
That made me laught 😂
@The Empress I bet the guy that appraised it would pay more for it...
*Ah, Selling the family heirlooms I see.*
Not his family. The original Families heirloom .
"Taking my family to a theme park in Florida!"
Writers had to find another term for Walt Disney world because of copyrights?
KainAbyss idk why , Disney own history channel
The real name of sword "CHUNCHUNMARU" and belongs to Satou Kazuma.
"Filthy weeb"
Ty for this reference
He said, "AN EASY $8,000"....Would you take 4k
Exactly, I would have held my ground at $6.5k.
Shocker. It’s worth exactly what he wanted. And y’all say it isn’t rigged
right. luck isnt a real thing. if i were to flip a coin, say its gonna land on heads. and then it lands on heads, it must be rigged right?
Maybe the guy knew what is worth ?
Guy: I have Mozart's skull
Rick: I'll give you 2 dollars for it
Let me call in my buddy, he's an expert on human skulls.
*Jeffery Dahmer walks in*
Woah that’s a huge risk
More Like " WTF are you doing carrying around a human skull!"
1.50
For real they be telling their appraisal buddies what the customer was asking for.
I’d keep that for further generations, awesome item to have in possession
He gave up too fast! He Could’ve easily gotten aleast 6k.
Or 10
Love how the assessor and the customer always seem to come up with the same value. 🤣
I could never sell something my grandfather brought back from WW2
@Philip Gibbs I'm sure his grandpa would be real proud...
Went from Disney to six flags real quick
if you need to sell your family traditional thing for taking your family to a vacation, you need to give a second thought about your life dude.
I prefer money than having a showpiece that does absolutely nothing.
Imagine this is your grandson, cashing out just 1 generation down... 😟
Mike Yamasaki’s voice cracked in 1:58
michelle mendez I was looking for this comment
Same
Why is a voice crack made a big deal everywhere? I never understood.
Barka Dog you'll learn when you grow up
Lol just sell it to a collector that wil prob get you more money
"I would like to sell this item" what is it? "I don't know" how much? "$8,000"
Mr. Brown swung that sword famously
Grandfather: fights in ww2, brings artifact of great importance in human life, passes said artifact to grandson as he believe he will understand its value. Grandson: “ I wANt tO gO TO DiSNEYlAnd” Man your kids will be up next in the premium Snapchat craze.
It really bugs me that they keep calling , something that's barely a foot in length, a sword.
Well Japanese people are not that tall on average so you have to see everything in perspective.
It is still a sword, the Japanese have three basic lengths of sword. This sword is as you can guess a short sword
@@markkNL No
@@sullythepankake9663 I'm not suggesting that the nomenclature is incorrect, I'm just saying it bugs me personally.
Real name of this show:
"What do you mean? Respect and appreciation? Money is what I need!"
At least those who buy these treasures will really get to appreciate them.
There is a good reason why some things are rare to find, after all.
It’s so sad how these items have so much history, yet they are selling it to make a quick buck.
Wakisashi or wakizashi a small type of sword used with a katana
“the scabbard looks like wood maybe” lmao, I could have told you that
This is an insult to the sword community
His grandfather stole that..
It is made of wood because the character started playing Minecraft yesterday, geez
Wish that was in my family & passed down to me. It would've never been for sale. Family heirlooms are NOT FOR SALE. That was a cool sword.
It only became HIS families heirloom in the late 40’s. It was another family’s for longer, and then was stolen.
Sells his grandpa’s sword to go to Florida...
What jerk sells his grandfather's history for a vacation
1:57 Whats up "CoRy"
I knew I wasnt the only one that heard that 😂😂
call the police NOW that was robbery get that in Specialist auction you would’ve made a fortune I will give you £5000 for it now !!!!!
In Asia we respect antique things, especially the things that our ancestor left for us. If I be that man, I'll never sell that katana.
In the states sadly it is the opposite.
I wish it could go back to Japan to the soldier's family ...who would NOT sell it for a vacation. Just unbelievable!
Priceless...absolutely priceless. If i had the cash id buy it and try to find the original owners family.
Does this guy know that if he when to south Africa with 8000 dollars because of the exchange rate he could live in a 5 star hotel for a month and have enough money for a trip ever day and food for 4 restaurant plus ten %tip and still go home with money to keep. Think before you go
0:07
"Why isit made out of wood?"
"I mean it wooden do a lot of damage"
Everyone wants to take their family to vacation ! yeah right .
His grandfather got it from a Japanese Officer after they blowed off his shins and he killed Fiddy men!
I read sooo many books about these stuff it’s not even funny. It’s like second nature to me now.
Hold on a minute I will call Kenshin.
Customer: OK
I came here from tik tok cause they did not put up part 2. 🤦♀️
Guy: I have this 10 grand greenback, you see how that worth?
Rick: Best I can do is 100
Never heard that joke before.....
As someone who enjoys history there is no way I would sell that unless I was desperate for money. And taking the family on a vacation would not be a good reason for me to do it.
8 grand for a historical artifact that your grandfather passed down to you? Hope it's worth it.
“My grandfather brought the sword back from WW II.”
×brought
○plundered
As a Japanese, I always
feel quite anger every time I see ignorant descendant of Americans soldiers have katanas.
"They" always wanna take their families on vacation.
actually more common is "I going in casino with that money"
@@tihomirrasperic yup
Do people not know that museums will give you full value for stuff like that, that was the stupidest deal I’ve ever seen.
1:57 dude is still having voice cracks lmao
LOOOLLLLLLLL WASSUP COoREY
"I gotta make some money, how about 4K off"
suckah, you think that's gonna cost you 4K in floor space? nah. should've countered with 7.
“Here let me call Rebecca real quick”
“But it’s not a book-“
“I’m calling Rebecca”
It's mind-blowing to me how pretty that woman is, considering she's American.
How could let go of something like this for a vacation?????
"It's worth 8000" "alright I'll give you a 100 bucks"
My g talks like he smoke 30 packs of cigarrets 😅👀👀👀👀
i miss mr 🅱️rown i wanted to know why they got along so famously
In order for it to become big you just have to say "bangkai.!" In a cool way.
Rick would be like okay 0.01 cents is the best I could do and I am taking a HUGE risk
