Hello Steve,

well most blade you will find are worth between $1000.00 - $4000.00 when in restored condition. However sometimes cost of restoration would be beyond their value in the end. Maybe 10% of the blade that you can find are worth over $5000.00. Blades that are worth over 100k are well less than 1% tough ... I'm still searching for one Wink

Best wishes,

Christian

would it be ok for you if only the blade remain but near the sword handle a #2 marks and kanji character on it?
