It's not a Hajiro - But it's the best Matsukawabake I have seen in a long time. Where is it located?

I agree it's a matsukawabake...and a very good one! Anytime you see a great fish like this one post it! It's appreciated!(thank-you!)

Thanks for correction Dick. Yes, I love gosanke, but always appreciation for unique and special koi like this one and the other Asagi I posted couple
days ago.

Anyway, What are the differences between Hajiro and Matsukawabake?

What is the asking price of such a thing? I have to agree with Aquatori, that you pay for the pattern now and you get a pattern later that is worthless....Sorry but that's my opinion.

Master, don't make me get it while no more budget for koi this year;-)) Did I
mention it somewhere before. I think Stan and I have the same goal....
But you have to agree with your koi student that is is a masterpiece for koi collection....

I will PM you the price.... or you can check it out with the dealer....

I never have any matsukawabake in my pond. So I don't have much
experience with this type. But if you seeing it in person. The snow white
base with the black reflection make it an outstanding piece....
