Tamahagane (tempered steel) forged by Eijiro, with his mark. It's old, but well-maintained and cuts very well. The curve of the handle fits the hand and is easy to hold, making it easy to work with. The scabbard seems to be lost, and this one is handmade. There are traces of adhesive, possibly because the connection between the blade and the handle had loosened, but it is securely fixed. Total length: 21cm, Blade length: 7cm
