HI Folks,
Haven't been active on the forum in a long time, with a third child and businesses to run I sadly just don't have time to devote anymore.
So, up for sale is one of the few blades I have left, a Japanese daito in shirasaya with full koshirae and tsunagi. The blade is signed Masachika and dated 1971. It's in great original polish and is guaranteed free of hagire.
The tsuba is an antique, however the rest of the koshirae appears to be gendai production.
Purchased from samuraishokai.jp. Full specs and pictures of this blade and koshirae can be seen here:

I paid 2400 for it, asking $2200 shipped CONUS OBO. Iam not interested in trades. Payment can either be made by US Postal money orders or paypal. If paying via Paypal add 3%.
