Hi, for sale is a nice Tachi from the 3rd generation Naohiro. As I am mainly focusing on Shinshinto, I decided with a heavy heart to sell it. The nagasa is about 74,5cm and it comes in Shirasaya and NTHK Papers. Signed: Bushu Musashimachi Junin Naohiro. It is an impressive copy of an early Kamakura Blade. About the smith: NAOHIRO (直弘), 3rd gen., Shōwa (昭和, 1926-1989), Saitama – “Juō Bushū Musashi-machi Takakura-jū Naohiro” (寿王武州武蔵町高倉住直弘), real name Yanagawa Masaki (柳川昌喜), born October 5th 1910, son of Yanagawa Saijirō, he died in September 1994 Price: 6000 Euro for any questions, more/better pictures or offer, please send me a PM I can also bring it Utrecht, thanks Oliver

No, but what do you except from this pictures from us? I only see its a piece of metal.

Come to https://www.japanartfair.com/ (No taxes from dealers from Japan, btw) . For this price I would first learn more about Nihonto and second only buy after personal viewing.

So why you ask in this board? You can also find a Tanto for 1k-2k Euro. What is your price limit? And yes Nihonto isn't a cheap hobby, but also you don´t have to be a millionaire. You can also have a look in Tosugu, a nice Tsuba is also very beautiful. Or maybe start to invest in some books. Or invest in a trip to Utrecht to the Japanartfair to get an overview of Nihonto.

I wouldn't suggest you to buy this. I this constitution you can't enjoy it, and for a restoration you must also pay some thousands. I recommend you the sale section here, there are some blades for sale and if it is from EU, you don't have to pay customs. Best Regards Oli

I will be 12/13.6 in Utrecht, if somebody wants to have a look or buy it, please message me.
