Thanks for the kind words Jussi! Yes that piece sold at the San Francisco sword show. I'm surprised it stayed available for as long as it did. Marcus Sesko examined it at our NYC Token Kai club meeting and believed it was KOTO. At any rate- thanks for the interest and yes it is sold.

A large Omi Yari for sale: $1850 USD + Shipping and fees Mumei: Kanesaki NBTHK Hozon Late Muromachi-early Edo Ubu nakago Shirasaya 58CM Nagasa (23") Hamon features repeating togari pattern and is in good polish Located in NYC Can ship anywhere Payment accepted: Check, PayPal, Bank Transfer, Venmo Price: $1850 plus shipping / +PayPal fee if using PayPal Other Info and Full Description : This large Omi Yari was made in Mino province by Kanesaki. It has been awarded a Hozon paper by the NBTHK. Large yari like this were important as functional battlefield weapons and as a way for samurai to display their wealth. The steel has a whitish tint to it, indicative of the steel produced in Mino province in the Muromachi period. The hamon is very healthy and active on all four sides. It features plenty of hataraki to admire and study. There are tobayaki along the spine. There are small signs of prior rusting, but these spots are all inactive and have been polished and removed by an expert in Japan. Let me know if you have any questions. At this price I don't think this will last long. Jake
