I mainly sell maintenance materials for Japanese swords, so please take a look at my other listings if you're interested. This time, I'm offering this because I understand that some people want to buy a certain number of mekugi (pegs) but repeatedly bidding on individual listings can get quite expensive. I received a request from someone who wasn't confident in making them from scratch, so I'm offering these (**). These are hand-carved from smoked bamboo, carefully preserving the bamboo skin (done with a single knife, as machines can't do this). There are 8 mekugi in total, ranging from Φ4 to Φ6 in size, and a mekugi case is included! Please take this opportunity to bid and try my mekugi in your swords. I made these while praying for your safety (*^^*) Thank you. #Sumitake (Smoked Bamboo) #JapaneseSword #Koshirae (Mountings) #Menuki (Handle Ornament) #Tsuba (Guard) #Tosogu (Sword Fittings) #Shinken (Real Sword)
