The tang is also solid, and it was in a magnificent koshirae (mountings). ・ As shown in image 3, the jigane (steel) is folded and forged to the extent of komokume (small wood grain), and the hamon (blade pattern) is a slightly curved straight blade, so you can enjoy it. ・ The saya (scabbard) and tsuka (handle) are made of Japanese oak. The finish is cashew lacquer. ・ The mekugi (peg) is smoked bamboo. ● Size ・ Blade length: 10.9cm ・ Base thickness: 4.1mm ・ Base width: 20.5mm ・ Tip width: 20mm ・ Overall length: 14.5cm ・ Weight: 61g ・ Overall length with scabbard: 23cm ・ Weight with scabbard: 128g ● Notes ・ Since remnants of a Japanese sword forging blade are used, there are fine forging flaws. Also, we are not a knife manufacturer, so please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a new industrial product (unforged). ・ Since remnants are used, it is prone to rust. The cashew lacquer-finished scabbard is not breathable, so it is especially prone to rust. ・ We are not appraisers regarding the inscription, so we do not know the authenticity. ・ It is listed on multiple sites, so it may be sold out depending on the timing, so please understand. #CustomKnife #OutdoorKnife #Tanto (short sword) #JapaneseSword #Koto (old sword) #EdoPeriod #Remnants #Tamahagane (steel) #Antique #Antiques #Amulet #ProtectiveSword
