PNSSHOGUN Posted April 11, 2021 Report Posted April 11, 2021 What a fantastic Shin Gunto, one many of us have admired in your gallery section over the years. It's not very often you find a great blade and such fine condition quality mounts together for sale. 1 Quote
vajo Posted April 11, 2021 Report Posted April 11, 2021 Museum quality overall. What a great sword. I would not sell such a fine looking piece if i had it in my collection. Thats a lifetime offer! Quote
Austo1 Posted April 12, 2021 Author Report Posted April 12, 2021 For Sale Again...........Unfortunately buyer could not come up with the funds Quote

Austo1 Posted April 14, 2021 Author Report Posted April 14, 2021 For a quick sale in this current depressed market ,I would be willing to let the Tsukamoto Okimasa go for $9000AUD (Australian Dollars) which is currently about $6900US. This price is less than a reasonable Yasukunito and $3,000AUD less than my original asking price, which was what I paid for it. The blade is in great condition as is the shingunto koshirae, which comes with a blue/brown company grade tassel. I will get some pics up as soon as I can, however you will find some by searching the NMB. Kind Regards Doug 1 Quote
Austo1 Posted April 16, 2021 Author Report Posted April 16, 2021 I have had a change of heart and have decided to withdraw the Okimasa at this time and sell some other items instead. Kind Regards Doug 1 Quote

Kind Regards Doug Hi Doug, I can fully understand you - I also would never sell my Okimasa, if I would own one!!! 1 Quote
