Hello there!
I am new in this circle and need your help. I consider the purchase of a contemporary Tachi (Tokubetsu Hozon Token) in shirasaya and consider having it fitted with a high grade koshirae. I own a pair of nice Manuki (photo) that inherited from my father that I would like to use. He also left a collection of Tsuba, but rather than getting one of those refitted I consider having a new one made. All of this work should be executed in Japan, as the Tachi is presently still there.
My questions is: can you advise me of a good contact to get started with this project and what would be the price range for a complete koshirae?
Appreciating any helpful pointers.
Cheers!
