Bugei Bamboo FS with 31.5" nagasa

[Craig Allen]

This is a beautiful and functional sword that I am parting with to fund a custom project. This sword might interest you if you are A) taller and/or B) plan to cut with your sword, C) looking to buy a folded blade at a tempered-only blade price.

The good: Sword has a 31" nagasa and 11.5" tsuka. It is a hefty sword, powerful cutter, and well balanced. Anyone familiar with Bugei's swords know they all feature a prominent hamon and hada.

The bad:
The sword HAS been used for cutting - soft targets only. There are some visible scuffs on the forward part of the blade testifying as much. (The ha itself is in perfect condition.) There are also some minor discolorations on the mune. I have taken these conditions into account in setting my price.

Going price is $750 shipped. Just about half price from what Bugei would charge.
