Hello all,
Got a very gorgeous blade for sake, and it's already discounted.
Was going to ask $1450 for it... but once I was tying the knots on the tsuka I realized one of the menuki is upside down. Luckily it's on the omote side and you can barely see what the menuki is supposed to be... so knocking $200 off for my mistake.
Full specs soon. Roughly a 28 inch blade. New Hyper-Cafe bronze habaki, lotus and carp tsuba, tsuka with a semi full wrap (one panel and a second piece completely wrapping the outside) and Handachi koshirae from eBay seller Sofecoke. Extremely good detail on the koshirae, no casting flaws.
What I love about this blade is the bo hi doesn't extend all the way to the shinogi ji. Instead it leaves a small little shelf before transitioning, which is extremely hard to carve and shape perfectly.
Full Polish, no damage. Midare-suguha hamon, tight hada.
