The pictures are nice but that's not what he is selling. The pictures that he uses there are from other sites.
Some strange things from there
... the Handle(Tsuka) is professionally hand-cut and crafted from Japanese hard pine wood ...
Professionals don't use pine in tsuka.
I'm not a sword expert but
SFI is your good friend.

"You have to be strictly over 18 years old before making any purchases."
I would hope the bar would have been set a little higher.
It's not legal to drink/purchase alcohol or to purchase cig.'s in Ontario until you are 19...but you can purshase weaponry when you are 18...lol.
Moved to "This and That", since this isn't about anime, and edited link so it won't streach the page.

Thanks for the edit, Spacey. We collect swords - I just added Sting YAY - and I came across that one. Now, I have dodgy katana but oh.......to be able to buy a genuine folded steel one........
Titanium wants a Gurkha knife. Not while there are children in the house says I. Now, Dr Spacey, they are not for under 18's.

It gets better, Master Squishify. We have a refinance loan that gets paid to us today, after the house we get $60k to our bank account.

I am going to have to stay off e-bay for a few days, or instead of my new car, computer, and aircon/insulation.......I would just end up with an heirloom.

With that coin you can put a good tidy sum away for your children(s) education, if you haven't already. With coumpounding interest over 15-17 years, financing post secondary education shouldn't be a problem...or at least probably not like it is here...

On topic:
It never sits well with me to have weapons in a home. I'm from an area know for crime, and tend to see the risks associated with it over anything else...perhaps that's just my dysfunction after growing up and liveing there?

From the looks of it, this is an unfinished katana. Just the steel. Correct me if I'm wrong.
