Item description:
This is a very old tanto that looks to be from the 1400’s if not earlier. It’s in need of restoration and shinsa but is being sold as is. The hamon is visible and well done. It has no fatal flaws. It shows some hada ware that its common for very old swords. This blade overall is a great starter tanto with potential.
