Very Nice Japanese Edo Period Katana

$1,650.00

Old family Katana which measures 41-1/2 inches overall with a 26-1/2 inch blade with a clear straight temper line. The blade is bright with no nicks or rust or inclusions, unsigned tang with 2 holes. The sword’s ray skin grip is wrapped in the traditional style with black fabric, with the wrap showing minor wear. Beneath the wrapping are matching menuki. The pierced iron tsuba measures 3-1/4 X 3-3/8 inches. Wood scabbard with black lacquer shows minor cracks at the drag but nothing distracting. Overall a very attractive sword.
