md02geist Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Hello all! Up for your consideration is an excellent quality and condition Wakizashi by the Nio / Nioh school. Highly underrated in my opinion. Purchased from J Reid here on NMB and I have enjoyed studying it. It is signed Nio Kiyotsugu and I agree with J Reid’s assessment of it being Muromachi. I will ask him to chime in with measurements if he has them as I don’t know them offhand. Failing that I will take some Monday. Pictures are from his original listing. Yours for the same price I paid; 720USD. Price does not include shipping or insurance which will be calculated on a per buyer basis. I will not make a single dollar on this and will be including one of my own sword bags. Comes with shirasaya, a nice habaki, and a sword bag. A fantastic entry level priced piece for the collector, enthusiast, or student. Please PM me if interested! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonoman Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 Looks like a great piece to start off with. PM sent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
md02geist Posted February 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 It absolutely is. I have had it only a short time but have thoroughly enjoyed studying it. My aim is to pass on the good savings that were given to me by a fellow NMB member so another member here can study it as well. I think you will enjoy this blade!

J Reid Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 Unfortunately I don't remember exact measurements. But off the top of my head it was about 18.5 inch nagasa, 4 inch nakago. 7mm Moto kasane & 3mm saki-kasane. Give or take Solid and healthy blade. Nice and dark wet-ish jigane.
