What do people think of this, I’m going to put in a sneaky bid. Unfortunately the auction house will not remove the Tsuka so no picture of the NAKAGO but the seller confirmed it’s a MUMEI.

 

worth a modest bid as a gamble ( and I’m taking pocket money type modest ) ?

 

finally what is that with the red leather around the top of the Saya ? Not something I have seen before.

Id be thinking that tsuka is not original.

 

Id be wondering if its a shortened katana/tachi, very slender

 

Looks Mino

 

Id be wondering if that leather on saya is hiding damage

 

If auction house wont remove tsuka, maybe they want to hide something from potential buyers
