Ray Singer Posted January 22, 2019 Report Posted January 22, 2019 This Sengo katana, which was offered here in the board a couple of years ago, was in the collection I recently consigned and is the first sword I am offering for sale. It is a wonderfully mounted blade measuring 66 cm with a school attibution to Sengo. http://nihontofrance.com/nihonto-2/sengo-katana-2/?lang=en Unfortunately since it was acquired, the NBTHK Hozon kanteisho has been lost. The owner has agreed to reduce the price to allow a credit for submitting the sword again for kanteisho (though a photo of the original Hozon papers are attached). The Sengo is being offered at SOLD (plus shipping and insurance). I have attached the Nihonto France photos here (credit http://nihontofrance.com),but will add new photography as soon as possible. Any questions, please email raymondsinger@gmail.com. Best regards, Ray 8 Quote

bigjohnshea Posted January 23, 2019 Report Posted January 23, 2019 I owned this blade for years before it became part of a buy/trade to the current owner. It was my prized possession for those years. The near mirror image hamon with shallow valleys, nearly touching the ha, is definitively Muramasa. Even though I have a signed Muramasa tanto now, I still miss this sword. Somehow the papers dissappeared during the transition between me and the current owner, which was facilitated by a third party. It is a damn shame... Papers or no, were the money to come to me now I would buy back this sword in a heartbeat. I love it, and you will too if you are fortunate enough to acquire it. 4 Quote
