I just got a musashi hand build katana kit from the Musashi makers from a shop local to me. But I can't find out which one it is specifically online, there are certain details which escape me on it.

Heres whats in it...
Boxed, crimson pattern, dragons and clouds.
Inside box is orange lining.
Blade 29.5
Tsuba 3.5
Tsuka 11
Seppa x 4
Blue sword bag satin lined, or like satin
Maintenance kit - Oil, rice paper, cotton strip in plastic box, powder ball, brass hammer.
Pegs x 2
Scroll in envelope ,vellum

Price I paid £240

If you can find one that matches please link to it, I have a review written out, but right now I cannot access a pic host (library computer) in order to post review related pics.

Review will come soon anyway.
 
Have you checked here?
www.musashiswords.com/

As you are describing the acessories more than the sword itself, it is a bit hard to tell which sword you are looking for. If you can retrace your steps to point of purchase, you might find photos as well.

Cheers

Hotspur; the boxes are a nice touch but the money could be better applied to the swords
 
I hadn't tried that site, tried googling loads of times but as soon as you put in the term musashi it goes haywire as you can imagine. Anyway.

I think I managed to track it down to a Daigoro...It's supposed to be a muromachi I think but the tsuba was messed up, either way it seems to be of old stock and no longer available as far as I can tell.

I am in the process of uploading pics to host site, bbs with the review
