Isn't it crazy how you hold onto parts for so long and then finally you're like....I'm never using this or I want to by something that's in an auction and I'm short till pay so you sell it and then boom...a month or so later ...I need that saya....habaki...tsuka......seppa.....So many quality seppas I had and sold when I first got collecting. Now I realize how hard it is to find matching mint gold and silver wrapped seppa for a fair price and I was passing them along with swords I sold to friends who collect so they wouldn't rattle. I actually just picked up a habaki 10 minutes ago so maybe your wish of luck paid off on my end but I still want to have a few options.

b.hennick Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Your best bet is to take the sword to a sword show. The next one is in San Francisco in Aug. Try the habaki on and hope for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
