Wow that's a steal of a deal my friend. I think this would make a perfect starter blade.

Sent you a message!

What a deal! 

[Bull McCabe]

This is exactly what I have been looking for as a step up from my WW2 gunto. I’m likely too late but will venture you a message anyway.

More photos of the blade.  Potential buyers should note that I guarantee everything I sell. Returns are accepted for any reason. I am confident enough of this sword to even offer free returns for US addresses.

 

I will ship internationally but only to countries that permit it. Most do not.

Shoot, if this is still available when I get back stateside, I'd definitely be interested. For 2k, a papered blade and tsuba, in koshirae and a shirasaya? Definitely not a bad deal! Plus I'm a bit biased towards the Uda school, since I love theirs and their ancestors' works.

A few more of the blade tip from different angles.
