Hello my sword friends,
I bought these three katanas about 6 months ago. I custom designed them and specified the dimensions and such, I even made the 3D AutoCAD blue prints for them. IT saddens me to sell them but I am in a tough financial situation right now and need to sell most of my belongings.
the swords are in the same condition as I have not cut with them. they are well maintained and oiled regularly every 2 weeks. I used a katana kit for cleaning. I did some minor fixes on one saya to fit snug. there is minor marks from saya rub on 2 blades but its small and expected, it is easily fixed with polishing however i didn't have the time to polish all 3. I have not fixed the rattle in the saya issue because i barely removed them from their stand. If you have an offer to make please do it soon because I do not know how long shipping will be possible. if there is one that you are interested in please pm me for an offer. if you live in Germany or live in Berlin and you want to pick it up then the price will be lowered. the swords will come with the bags and boxes they came in as well as the stand and care kit plus some steel oil and polish materials. The prices are not final and Offers are welcomed. If someone would buy 2 or 3 at once the prices will drop and shipping will be cheaper.
And so here they are: The pictures are in the imgur link because they are too large to upload here. https://imgur.com/gallery/HxDr4bi
