25 in. polished steel blade with prominent hamon, the tang signed on both sides, fabric-wrapped ray skin grip, all brass mounts on both the sword and the scabbard incorporate the royal chrysanthemum.

40 in. overall length including the scabbard.

All original with deeply toned brass elements, these having traces of gilt; the blade is generally clean, however has scratches and areas of light oxidation; the grip lacks the wooden pin securing it to the tang, resulting in the overall loose joining of elements.

$300 - 600
