GTR32X Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Item:Real Samuri Sword Age:3 years Condition:Awesome Price:$2000 Location:Sydney Contact:PM BEST Comments:Im selling my Japanese Samuri Sword that i bought in Japan near 3 years ago now. This is a REAL Samuri Sword that i purchased from JAPANESE SWORD SHOP in Tokyo. This sword cost me a total of $2700 when purchased. Cause i had to also pay stamp duty when it came into Aust. Im not to sure if i can send it in interstate cause it might be considered a weapon. Pm if anyone is interested Thanks Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/221876-samuri-sword/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

a20089 Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 what is that?? I believe it means sharpened. A live weapon as opposed to a dull practice blade. I could be wrong though.

GTR32X Posted June 2, 2008 Author Share Posted June 2, 2008 I believe it means sharpened. A live weapon as opposed to a dull practice blade.I could be wrong though. Well if so, then its a live blade. It has not been sharpened I repeat this is a REAL Samuri Sword Not a cheap fake one.

Yawn Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 No offence or anything, but how do you tell if its a fake or not? Besides how sharp it is. Ive heard if its of good quality it should balance perfectly at the hilt?

Ive heard if its of good quality it should balance perfectly at the hilt? Call them up Japanese Sword Company, and ask them if about 3 years ago they sold a sword to a guy that went to Sydney, I actually should have the reciept somewhere also. The Symbol on the sword is its designer but i forget who it is. If u see the quality or if you will know its no fake.

GTR32X Posted June 3, 2008 Author Share Posted June 3, 2008 (edited) Im not too sure about the finer details but yes it is Sharp Very sharp. I know that it has SHARK Teeth on the handle. Its shark teeth crushed down and covers the handle then tied up with black ribbon.
