NathanLM Posted April 20, 2020 Report Posted April 20, 2020 Looking to sell this sword in order to fund another purchase. Overall in very nice shape. Koshirae is in excellent condition. The blade is 27” long and clean with no bends, chips or major flaws. The polish is decent, showing more wear toward the kissaki. Locking mechanism works fine. Tight Ito. Everything fits snug. Asking $1400 plus shipping. USA only sales at this time.
jason_mazzy Posted April 22, 2020 Report Posted April 22, 2020 Why is this gimei? Is it still traditional made or a complete fake?
NathanLM Posted April 22, 2020 Author Report Posted April 22, 2020 Gimei because it is signed Suishinshi Masahide and, according to one of the NMB experts, clearly not made/signed by him. There are none of the Arsenal stamps that would clearly indicate a machine made blade. It’s very possible this is traditionally made. I’m a newb and can not say for certain. More photos on request. Anyone can message me and I will email you many more. I find uploading photos to the forum from my iPhone tedious.
NathanLM Posted May 3, 2020 Author Report Posted May 3, 2020 New price $1100 plus ship. Bottom dollar
