NihontoWatchNihontoWatchThis is a wakizashi featuring a unique Katakiriba blade with a very wide Hi. It comes with its original koshirae. The blade has undergone a rare 'Dancing Buddha' (Odoributsu) cutting test, a term referring to a diagonal slash across the chest, similar to examples found on katana by Etchû no Kami Masatoshi.

We could not find an authenticity certificate on the seller’s listing. Japanese swords and fittings are normally papered by the NBTHK (or the NTHK). Without one, the attribution is the seller’s own assessment and has not been independently verified — treat it with caution and ask the dealer about certification before buying.
