Inscriptions of Smith’s name, location, and completion year and month are on the blade tang. The blade features a striking gunome (irregular zigzag) temper line with deep, luminous nioi (white mist) areas and intricate notches—exquisite details certain to captivate and entice discerning collectors.

The Fuchi and Kashira pommels are crafted from Shakudo copper, featuring intricate designs inspired by a samurai kabuto helmet and elegant Ume plum trees. The antique appearance of the braid lacing on the Tsuka handle conveys an authentic historical connection, most likely wrapped in the 1800s. This exceptional detail not only enhances the sword's timeless character but also provides unmatched appeal for lovers of genuine antique artistry. Due to its antique condition, the Tsukamaki wrapping is likely to be removed for preservation, presenting a rare opportunity to acquire a truly authentic collectible
