Howard Clark L6 Ko katana asking 3️⃣2️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ or serious offers.
Polish and Honoki wood shirasaya by Josiah Boomershine
Silver habaki by Randy Black
25.5 inch nagasa, 9 inch tang.
Ko katana are rarely forged in general, let alone by Mr. Clark
The blade was unfortunately was exposed to a etching mix that soaked into a towel and caused said damage since I was unaware. Left side of the blade is unaffected.
It does have a rolled edge pointed out with green arrow, Howard said it is repairable for near $200 and its preferred over it chipping.
Shirasaya is also not perfect hence the price. However when the next owner is ready to finish the project or doesn't like orange. There is plenty of Wood to sand down to final shape and it won't be noticed at all.
It is functional for cutting targets. I simple can't afford the project currently.
Project cost me 4️⃣6️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ so I pass along a bit of savings
I will take money order or PayPal and I will eat the fee
