Features:　This piece comes with an NBTHK Tokubetsu Kicho Token, but our company does not guarantee its authenticity.
The hamon is excellent, and the nioiguchi is deep and well-defined.
However, the saya inscription by Kanzan sensei contains an error.
Therefore, we cannot provide a guarantee.
Nonetheless, the sword itself is superbly crafted.
