Iaido Authentic High-Grade Iaito (Practice Sword) Japan Antique Gallery Goronyudo Masamune Replica Kodachi (Short Sword) Wakizashi (Side Sword) [Set Contents] ・Body ・Saya (Scabbard) ※Items other than those in the photos are not included. A top-of-the-line Iaito made by Japan Antique Gallery. Retail Price: Daisho (Long and Short Swords) 159,000 yen ※This listing is for the Kodachi (Short Sword). A valuable early lot Masamune replica Iaito from Japan Antique Gallery. The through-groove that extends to the Habaki (blade collar) and the texture of the Kotō-zukuri (old sword style) blade are features unique to the early, pre-production model, which are significantly different from the later models. As it is an Iaito, it can be used without problems for kata practice and basic swinging. You can hear a light, crisp sound from the groove. ※If used for practice, be sure to maintain it regularly. The blade has some minor scratches, but overall, it is in good condition. There is one spot of plating lift due to aging. Please check the enlarged photos. The Koiguchi (mouth of the scabbard) is tight and secure. Please be sure to check the photos for the exterior condition and purchase only if you are satisfied. Japan Antique Gallery has already ceased production of Iaito, so this is a valuable piece. Especially the early lot of the Masamune replica, which is positioned as a top-of-the-line product, is a rare item that is not often found on the market. Please consider this opportunity.
