A beautiful wakizashi with a delicate, flawless, dainty blade. The koshirae are very beautiful with a rabbit motif…quite a few rabbits! The tsuba is more ‘rustic’ and functional, however. The ridged ‘kizamizaya’ is very eye-catching and 3hat attracted me to this modestly-priced wakizashi. The description suggested light scratching on the blade due to regular drawing from the kizamizaya but I really can’t see it at all, so I’m especially pleased and a sign of Japanese perfectionism!
Tozando Katana Shop and especially Yusumasa san as usual, provide the very best customer service and I cannot praise him enough.
