Description

This tanto is a unique piece featuring a Toppei-style Western-inspired koshirae and a blade crafted in the Unokubi style in Koto era. The nakago is inscribed with “Soshu Hirotsugu.” In December 2021, the Society for the Preservation of Japanese Art Swords authenticated this tanto as a genuine work by Hirotsugu and issued a Hozon certificate.
