Create my profile now!This is a quality Japanese Tanto with an ancient C1584 pristine blade. The 8 ¼” long blade has well defined undulating hamon with excellent polish and no nicks or damage to the cutting edge. It measures 13 ¼” overall length. The Tang is signed on both sides indicating the maker to be Sukesada C1584 ( the markings are worthy of further translation & research). Its handle has Shagreen and leather covering and brass ‘Labourer’ menuki. It has white metal habaki and gilt decorated Kashira & Fuchi. The weapon is complete with its attractive lacquered wood scabbard which has a white metal ‘Tsunami’ pattern end cap. The scabbard is undamaged and fitted with tasselled cord. The throat has insets which hold a small kozuka knife with 3” steel blade, copper handle and metal animal form decoration on one side and two 7 ¼” long black painted copper Kogai with gilt work on the other side (spikes for Samurai hair decoration). Price for this quality Japanese piece with ancient blade includes UK delivery. Sn 13194
