A great mounted wakazashi.

The Quintessential Shinto era Japanese Samurai sword,  this blade is ubu and  maintains the original signature and attributes. The blade comes with original mounts. The blade itself is an exciting blend of Notare and Gunome with a beautiful thick frosting nie and nioi. This sword has an abundance of hataraki.  The ko-itame hada is tightly forged and very well made. This blade is a beauty to behold. The mounts are pure Samurai style mounts in iron with dragon  menuki and vine-like tsuba.  This blade comes with papers attesting to the overall quality and the genuine signature.
