This is a very nice quality tanto attributed to Jumyo. There were many smiths that signed Jumyo and this tanto is more than likely from the shinto era. It has very nice work and has very nice mounts. The hada is forged well and the hamon is nie/nio mixed with good activity. The shape is also not just hirazukuri as many tanto were. It has a very elegant feel to it and is a fine tanto.
