[DoyleB]

Hello, I am putting the word out that I am looking to buy a specific type of sword.

I am looking for:

Tanto, papered -NBTHK, signed and DATED, old-pre 16^th century, in fittings or a least it has a saya and a tsuka.

All for under $3,500. I realize that for this price I will not be able to get a perfect blade, but I won’t be using it in battle.  If you have one, or know anyone I can contact please let me know, and please keep my contact info, in case you come across something. Sorry for the long email.

 

Thanks
