This tanto should be submitted for shinsa and is in a good old polish. The blade is well made and the hada is forged tightly. The hamon has good hataraki/activity. This fine blade comes in original mounts that are mostly silver. The fuchi and kashira are very well made. The only thing we would recommend is to have the handle re-wrapped in the future.
