$0
1 fine ancient Japanese Samurai sword available. The blade itself was carried by Samurai as early as the Kamakura Period, 1185-1333 A.D. This desirable Japanese antique would make an important addition to any collection.
This sword has extraordinary artistry making it an exceptional Japanese antique. When I bought this sword I was offered $2600 just for the solid gold menuki. The dealer wanted me to just kind of ‘slip the menuki out from under the wrap’.
The tang/nakago on this Kamakura blade is unsigned, shortened, and has 3 holes. The tsuba is signed.
The blade measures 14 1/8″ (35.9 cm) from blade tip to the habaki. Note the blade carvings/bohi. The 2-piece habaki has both Silver and Gold foil.
The matching fuchi/kashira are shakudo. The kashira depicts a coastal Samurai village. The fuchi depicts a Samurai in armor in a boat on the ocean. The signed high-relief tsuba depicts an armored Samurai as well. In addition, the kozuka is Waki-Goto, and also features a Samurai in armor motif. The kogatana is nicely signed.
The saya is exceptional as well. It has fine textured lacquer work with no damage. A fine yellow and gold silk sageo is attached to the saya.
