All come inside a Ryujin logo black coverAs some of you may already know, these type of of swords are all individually forged so the specs provided at the bottom of the listing which are copied & pasted from the retailer's website, may vary slightly to those of this sword listed for sale on here! If the variance in those measurements are a deal breaker for you, please do not buy my sword! No original box or papers! Condition: EXCELLENT, pre-owned. Inspected, handled and lightly used. Typically, I take a few practice swings with my swords at either medium-duty rolled cardboard or rolled tatami so may show some minor signs of use/wear along the blade but the edge is original and untouched. Some observations: the edge is reasonably sharp but not dangerously sharp which can be quite adequate for Dojo and backyard cutting practices. The saya/scabbard is nice and very snug with no wiggle. Very little signs of scuffs or scratches on the blade, if any! May still have some protective oil residue from when was shipped out to me. Overall this Ryujin Elite Katana is in EXCELLENT pre-owned, lightly used condition!The sword in this listing is exactly as photographed: (what is pictured is what you will receive).Shipping: standard USPS Ground Advantage Mail with estimated 4-5 days domestic delivery. No shipping to any international countries! Terms of Sale: I go to great lengths to inspect, describe and present my knives so I will only accept returns if not exactly as described. No returns based on any buyer's remorse or just wanting to buy/try out of curiosity (this is not a retail knife store!). Looking for trusted transaction with like-minded knife hobbyists / enthusiasts. No returns whatsoever if the knife gets carried, used, abused or disassembled.
