Item description here
This is a shin shinto tanto in mounts. The overall condition is good. This blade is more than likely from the 1800’s and the work on it is clearly visible. The hamon is in gunome style and looks attractive. The hada is itame and clear. These tanto were functional and the mounts are a mixture of brass and copper. Overall a good reasonably price tanto of a new collector that is in good shape.
