For Sale: Minty Kai Gunto

Recommended Posts

Hey guys!

 

I have a Kai gunto that I'm looking to move fairly quick as its not my area of interest. I recently acquired it from the grandson of the vet that received it during the war.

 

The sword is basically in mint wartime polish with the hamon shining very bright.. It has a minor hakobore that I have photographed. Otherwise it's in great condition. The koshirae is all matching no.66 with the sarute and the original officers tassel. Overall condition is 95% with antique wear and only some minor chips to the lacquer on the seam of the saya. The whole package is solid. A perfect and complete example of a Kai gunto for anyone collecting ww2 blades.

 

The blade is a seki Arsenal blade. I haven't yet translated the mei..

 

I have included some pictures but have many more. So if you're interested.. I can email you. Looking to get my bottom price for a quick sale. $1100USD (+shipping and paypal)

 

Also open to partial trades with a minimum of $400USD cash

 

Thanks!
