Ronin elite katana---> photos.app.goo.gl/TPLq9Vga5qqw8hc46
SOLD
condition:
scratched and dented. i hit metal screws in some wood a couple times causing the edge to roll near the kissaki. there are lots of scratches on the blade from cutting hundreds of bottles. the sword is not secure in the saya it will slip out if held upside down. i lacquered the ito and its rock solid... but that was unnecessary because it already came tight. saya has some dents and one of the shitodome popped off when i changed the sageo. this sword was a learning experience for me it was the second sword i ever bought and used. its tough as hell, sharp and well balanced with heavy cutting geometry. im not a fan of the koshirae though, specifically how the fuchi rubs against my thumb when in use. after a long cutting session it made my thumb blister. so i had to use a lower grip on the handle to fight that. but i think its aesthetically really cool. i think this sword would be a good project blade if anything

SOLD
condition:
like new, sword is in very good condition. used to cut bottles only 1 time. theres like 2 light scratches on the blade. inserted cotton ball into bottom of saya to fix saya rattle. all other cosmetic imperfections are from the manufacturer. its well balanced, pob 5 inches from tsuba. ito isnt too tight there is some play, but it doesnt make me think it will come undone anytime soon. though i would recommend lacquering it. transitions are good on the tsuka. comfortable to swing around and blade is very sharp. sageo is silk from tozando
