nihon Posted January 29 Report Posted January 29 I won a auction on this a while ago for about $600-$700usd on ebay. It has nthk papers and was attributed to den echizen seki I would like to know if I had overpaid it or not Quote
Bugyotsuji Posted January 29 Report Posted January 29 US dollars? Wakizashi, Echizen, from Seki, C. 延宝 1673-81, with NTHK papers, you didn't pay too much. Quote
KungFooey Posted January 29 Report Posted January 29 Er, if that bugs you, shouldn't you have asked the question before you bought?🤔 Also, price is largely subjective unless you bought it solely to sell it straight on. If you love it, it's worth it. Just sayin' 2 1 Quote
Mark S. Posted January 29 Report Posted January 29 Unless there are some major flaws you are not showing us, I would say you did all right. Think of it like this… papers cost about $300 to obtain, so you got the blade for $300 to $400. Quote

Just sayin' Bought it as my first shinto sword since I mainly focus on koto swords, I thought I paid a fair price but just wanted opinions form others to know it's value Quote

No major flaws just some black rust spots along the blade and some more recent rust spots near the habaki area Quote
