thanks Curran, i think it is a good deal, but paper says Mihara not Ko-Mihara   I put Koto in the title as someone asked for Koto blades

[DanielLee]

Great deal, my very first sword was a hozon ko-mihara katana at $7000. A good yamato den example

May I remark that it seems just slightly suriage and machi okuri? Then again, hard to say without the sword in hand. 

 

An excellent offer, BTW.
