Jean,

 

Per che?

 

This one? http://nihonto.com/10.18.13sale.html

It was still available when I looked. Yoshiyuki is one of the much better artists in the shadow of the kings of the 1800s.

He is the maker of a favorite pair of fuchi-kashira that I own. I admit that I was tempted, but I have another item as my current goal.

I saw the Rai Kunimitsu in Japan a couple of years ago and fell in love with it then. It is one of the best Rai blades I have ever held. Fortunately my wife was by my side when I was looking and she felt selling my daughter in to servitude wasn't a realistic funding plan!

It confirmed to me that Kunimitsu was one of my favourite Yamashiro smiths and certainly my  favourite Rai smith. It is stunning.

All three blades on sale are top quality ones. The Y Ichimonji was a steal (almost half price and with beautiful koshirae!). The two tanto are also very covetable.

Funny typo, I guess you meant to write "unfortunately"?!
