Thank you very much for viewing. The sword stand is for photography and is not included. This is a simulated sword for iaido practice, so the blade is not sharp. There are minor plating imperfections that appear to have occurred during manufacturing, and a few small scratches on the scabbard that are barely noticeable. Otherwise, it is very clean with no other noticeable scratches or stains. The construction is solid, and there is no looseness in the handguard, so it can be used without any problems for iaido practice or performances. This iaito with a bamboo leaf design is well-balanced and easy to swing, making it popular since long ago. It is slightly shorter than standard size and has a lightweight, hard blade, so it is recommended for beginners. Blade: Sand-cast, lightweight, hard blade for iaido practice, with a groove Straight temper line Handle: Wooden, genuine ray skin, pure cotton black handle thread twist wrap Menuki: Autumn grass, fittings: handle head, edge fitting, bamboo leaf design Tsuba: Bamboo leaf design iron tsuba Scabbard: High-quality black stone-like lacquer, pure cotton black sageo Total length: 98cm, Blade length: 68cm (excluding habaki) Handle length: 24.5cm, Weight without scabbard: 816g, Curvature: 1.5cm Accessories: High-quality sword bag (new and unused) ⚠️ Although it is a beautiful item, there may be some scratches or stains that I have not noticed.
