  13. You have to remember the fittings have value Just a WAG Tsuba 200 F/K 100 Menuki 200 if other one is still on the tsuka. Personally I'd save if for future family to pass it down Have the ito rewrapped The $$ you get will be gone faster than the memories of the sword.
  14. Ask 500 go from there. I know if on my table I'd ask $800 as war curio.
  15. Really hard to tell what caused the damage not that I'd suggest remove the wrap on saya if removed and no hole you'd have removed more value as war relic. May we see the tsuba up close it may add more value.
  16. If in fact a bullet strike, It doesn't have to be in saya to happen, It has value to military collectors. As requested. More close up's please.
