This is a very fine looking daisho. The katana is in yamato style and the wakazashi in in bizen style. As in most daisho the wakazashi is flashy next to the katana. The swords are both well made and the mounts all in match superbly together making for a true daisho or set. The pictures show the quality of the blades and mounts.
