We would be happy to polish the sword for the new owner.  The cost for polishing this sword is normally approximately $2000.00 but we will give the buyer a better price of $1700,  Koshirai/shirasaya work is extra.  The sword has no scabbard. The pictures not do justice to this sword.  The hada is very well forged with a very tight itame. The mounts are original and add to the overall value of this item.
