Nickupero Posted October 29, 2015 Report Posted October 29, 2015 Hi Guys, I got this superb set, both blade and fittings are a marriage (I really like the Koshirae on this one, the Japanese maple leaves are so finely done) Anyways the blade is signed with Kikumon - Yamashiro no kami Fujiwara Kunikiyo. This belongs to 1st Gen Kunikiyo, has Tachi mei smack in the center which is what he was known for. The nagasa measures 70.6 cm. I attached an image of where the cutting test was performed, mid chest area. The polish and hamon are superb, looks like Hizen work. Price for members is $15.5k US plus shipping and any other related fees. donation will be honored if sold here.
Fuuten Posted October 29, 2015 Report Posted October 29, 2015 Nick, i always enjoy your adverts, its a shame i'm poor because i would've snapped by now. Nice blade and koshirae, particularly like the hada. Quite and rare nagako shape by the look of it
Greg F Posted October 30, 2015 Report Posted October 30, 2015 Hi Nick, I like the koshirae too, great hada, nice shape and bohi. Beautiful blade all round! Good luck. Greg
Nickupero Posted October 30, 2015 Author Report Posted October 30, 2015 Thanks Axel and Greg, the overall feel of the blade is quite nice when mounted, good weight and balance so its not just a good looking piece but a practical one.
