Looking to buy/"scouting the waters" - Naginata Naoshi

[buchtas]

Hi everyone,

I have my first nihonto still on the way home, but I want to start looking for a Naginata Naoshi, I just fell in love with them.

Anyway I want to scout the waters and prices, I do not know what they generally go for, that is why I am here.

My budget would be prefferably around 2000 Euros, If I would be really REALLY interested, i might squeeze my wallet up to 4000

I dont care about smith or papers.

All I want is true Naginata Naoshi, prefferably from before Edo period (if it is really nice piece i would fall in love on the first sight, I wouldnt care about the age either ) regardless of lenght, shape, school, hamon, level of polish etc...

A study blade I can always go to and enjoy looking at is the goal here.

Looking mainly in Europe but if the blade is worth it and a great deal i dont care where it comes from.

 

Thanks in advance for anything, even info on current prices.
