Nice Newer Made Blade For Sale :)

[Salvatori Moretto]

Hello folks, just helping a a customer of mine in need. 

It's one of the blades I mounted for a long time customer just recently, he just put it up for sale. I made the tsuka, seppa and did the tsukamaki and samagawa work, gathered and fitted all the koshirae (except antique menuki provided by the customer) and came up with the over all theme for him. Wally Hostetter did the saya, and Areku did the tsuba, and a close friend of his in Poland did the fuchi and kabutogane custom for this job as there were no fitting large enough for this on the market.

Only higher quality materials were used, even used a really nice piece of grade 1 samegawa for this one and the antiquing came out very nice.

A lot of craftsman put a lot of work into this one, and he's asking a fair price it imho. $2250 obo
