What do you think of the new Busse Sword?

Hanwei makes Bugei's swords and they're generally considered as a pretty premium "user" sword by practitioners.

Well over 20 years ago when I really got into Japanese swords a proper differentially heat treated Katana was big money.

I used to search around for Nihonto by going into NY and Baltimore to name a few cities looking for blades that were not to tired.

I found a few but alas it was hard to find a decent blade that would be suitable for actual cutting. At the time just getting them polished and remounted was a small fortune.

There where a handful of truly talented makers back then in this country but good swords cost big money.

In my humble opinion none of this has changed in the least.
