Przemek Disho
This is a set of swords from Przemek. He is a polish smith that specializes in making katana. Each of these blades is differentially heat treated from W2 steel and comes with a basic polish, habaki, and shirasaya. This is a good start if you plan on doing a custom project yourself.
Condition:
Each blade has some imperfections. Some of the saya show filler area, have small dings, or cracks near the koichihi area. Minor ad addressable prior to finishing should you chose to use these as a base. The blades have some spots indicating saya rub in the polish and minor spots of oxidation. Small areas in the polish are compromised and some oxidation is present on the nakago.

This blade has a slight sakisori, minor sweep toward the tip. The blade is hira zukuri and has a nice looking hamon.

The wakizashi has a shnogizukuri geometry with a bold gunome hamon. The kissaki is well defined but there are some minor rust stains on the mune.

The katana has an interesting hamon it starts with a bold gunome hamon then shifts to a suguha hamon in the monouchi. The blade has a nice shape and feel. The blade has more distal taper than many katana of its size and it lends itself to a nimble agile feel.
Asking $4300 + Shipping for the who thing. I can sell them separately as well. $2500 for katana, $1300 for the wakizashi, $500 for the tanto.
