Koi-Bito Auction: Who is Hakujin

[MikeM]

There is a very nice GR Kohaku up for auction. The seller is listed as "Hakujin". I am not familiar with this dealer... an internet moniker, perhaps?

[Brian]

It's a dealer, but I'll allow him to come on here and introduce himself if he so wishes. Damn nice GR kohaku, if I do say so.

[Louie]

He diffinitly is not asian. He must be caucasoid hence the name Hakujin. Could it be Joel?

[Chagoi]

That's my bet.

[Ryan S.]

Betting Joel or Zack at Pan Intercorp. They get in some very nice fish.

That doesn't look like a Joel Picture. I am thinking Haku Jin. Maybe a new dealer in Hawaii??? Just my guess...

I would think if Joel then he would out real name...

Hella Nice Ginrin Kohak.

This GinRin Kohaku is very well balanced...GinRin looks really uniform from the shoulder to the end of the tail joint...Sakai Hiroshima 4 step is really nice!!!

Notice how the Shiro takes on a slight peachy color, rather than stark white? I have seen this effect on other GR Kohaku that have fine Shiro. There is something about the refraction of light on GR at certain angles that causes this effect over the Shiro as well as the Hi...a Kin Rin you might say. In other lighting/angle, the effect is different and the Shiro is the soft creamy white of good Kohaku. I think this is a very nice specimen with a classic pattern. Could well win Gin Rin A in a lot of U.S. shows... IMHO.
