Some samurai swords are well over 900 years old and while most have value in excess of $500, some can be valued as high as $25,000. Factors that influence value are Condition, Length, Maker, Carving, Quality of Fittings (sword furniture like handle, scabbard, tsuba, etc) and Originality. By some estimates, there are over 1,000,000 japanese swords in the United States, the majority of which came to this country as war souvenirs following the years after WWII.

 

 

I seek all types if Japanese swords, regardless of condition. It is a passion that I have had for over 15 years.
