Harry Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 I tried to sell this one previously but must have asked too much for it. Price reduced to move. $1,000 or best offer. Satisfaction guaranteed. This sword’s saya is made from magnolia wood coated with black lacquer decorated with sprinkled straw (resembles copper) and polished to a high shine. The mouth of the scabbard and the kurikata (suspension bracket) are made of black horn. The aperture of the kurikata is lined with gilded metal. The hilt has wooden grips covered in ray skin dyed yellow. The mounts (fuchi and kashira) have a chiseled Japanese fan motif further decorated with minute gilding. The menuki are held in place by a braided black cloth binding. The tsuba is iron, circular and with large piercings. The kozuka/kogatana (utility knife) is missing. Guaranteed authentic and antique.
