This is a Howard Clark katana forged in L6. Howard’s L6 blades are renowned for their cutting ability, durability, and performance by martial artists.

The blades also reflect a very subtle artistic elegance with their gentle notare hamon and a bluish-silver appearance to the steel when fully polished.

This particular L6 blade was a custom commission and was just finished in April. The blade is in binsui polish by Howard with copper habaki also by Howard.

The sword is robust and powerful with an extended chu-kissaki. Due to the fact it is made from L6 it’s incredibly light for a larger blade.

This sword can be used for tameshigiri, iai, or enjoyed as a beautiful art piece once fully polished.

This blade has never been used and is in perfect condition as received.

A new blade by Howard will cost $3,840 with shipping/insurance in addition to a year or more wait time.

Dimensions:
Nagasa - 28.75”
Sori - 1”
Nakago - 9"

Asking Price: SOLD (shipping/insurance fees are on me; must add 3.5% PayPal fees)

I also have this sword listed via my polisher's website - Chris Osborne at www.swordpolish.net Chris would be an excellent togishi to have this sword fully polished!

PS - By the way, I only ship within the USA because customs is a nightmare with swords. I will ship to an APO though and have done that before without much difficulty.
