Rick Barrett Hitatsura Shobu Katana

[Jason M D.]

1075 Shobu Zukuri Katana with a Hitatsura hamon.
28 7/8 nagasa
9 3/4 nakago (has some rust on it now)
Plenty of niku
7/8 tori sori (on a flat surface kissaki to munemachi)

Pics are of blade after polish and shows activity (this is not the current condition of the blade). Due to deal gone bad and the polisher's lack of payment to the mounter, it rusted and is in need of a new polish. Some very slight pitting, mostly staining but still sharp. Compound has been used to get some of the rust off.

The nakago also has rust on it (which is normal). Will post current pics if wanted.

$1,275.00
I'll cover shipping/insurance/confirmation USPS in the CONUS
Send email if interested.

Thanks, Jason

Please post current pics. Thanks

The spots are hard to photograph (don't have right equipment). There is also some staining at the tip. The compound was able to get one side cleaned up while the other side didn't fare so well. Looks as though it was lying on one side for a while.

Send me an email with anymore questions.

Thanks, Jason.
