【Product details】
This Edo period Japanese sword (katana) is a remarkable artifact, showcasing a pine tree openwork sword gurard (tsuba), a design deeply rooted in Japanese symbolism where the pine is celebrated for its sacred essence and as a symbol of longevity and prosperity. The blade itself is unsigned, which is often the case with many historical swords, adding to its mystique and allure.
Included with the sword is a copy of the Firearms and Swords registration certificate from Kochi Prefecture, under registration number 34920. The certificate specifies the katana's length at 62.4 cm, with a curvature of 1.2 cm, and notes the presence of two peg holes in the tang. The certificate was issued on September 4, in the 5th year of Reiwa (2023). It's important to note that while the original certificate is retained by the authorities, the copy serves as proof of authenticity and legality.
The blade and the tip present minor scratches, a testament to its age and authenticity. Kindly refer to the accompanying photos for a detailed view. The absence of pegs(Mekugi) requires careful handling to prevent the blade from slipping from the hilt. Please be aware that the sword stand is not part of this offering.
Dimensions:
Overall length with Mountings: 97 cm
Length of the blade: 80 cm
