This piece is a tanto equipped with a leather-wrapped tsuka from the Shinto period.

The blade is in excellent condition with no flaws or dents, but there are two spots of rust on the mine. There is also a chip at the top of the kissaki. The hada is itame with some mokume mixed in, and the yubashiri and chikei are well lifted. Hamon is a notare-like suguha with various hataraki within the ha, including ashi, aranie, and tama. Koshirae is unified with the tsuba, fuchigane, and kozuka in a dragon theme. The tsuka is wrapped in leather cords and the menuki is of the dashimenuki type. The kozuka is also fully equipped and very samurai-like koshirae.

This is a great tanto that TOZANDO is proud to offer.
