Steven have you tried posting your sword on Facebook ? The audience should be wider

Unfortunately I cannot ship internationally

1. Price reduced to $3700 plus shipping $65.00 within US. Please PM if interested. Taking a bath on this one but I need to free up some funds. This is a reduction of $2400 discount for a papered Katana in polish from my purchase price. Would like this to sell on this board to support the website/community. Must ship to a US address for international inquires if you can find a contact within the US I could accommodate you by shipping there

And if anyone is concerned… I bought a blade from Steven.  Blade was exactly as described and Steven was easy to work with.  A good person to deal with.

[autodex]

Thanks Mark, reduced to $3600 + 65 shipped hopefully that will attract a buyer in the US

[autodex]

Still available

Don't you think you are being excessive with your bumps? Unless you have new photos/other important information or the thread has gone from the first page it is rude to all the other people with listings to be constantly pushing yours to the top. Please show some restraint and consideration for the section, you are not the only person trying to sell here.

[autodex]

Sorry John I will make sure to limit this moving forward

[Michael Kwok]

I also bought a blade from Steven, he is a great person to work with.

Do you know about when the blade was made, I know Edo but was wondering if you knew when the blade maker lived.
