Thank you Danny

Thanks, Curran. Good eye, sir. BTW, all purchases were sent today. I will send Tracking numbers to the buyers tomorrow.

Depth is 21.5 cm It has housed a nakago of 19.7cm I have found add copper seppa made specially for this tsuka. New and without patina.

Thank you Peter. I guess if someone wanted just the fuchi/kashira, they would have to pay more than what I am asking.
