From Aoi Art: Since the Muromachi period, the production of Tanto has almost completely disappeared. At the end of the Edo period, warfare led to the production of Japanese swords and Tanto. This is a very rare work of Yoroi Doshi Tanto with a thick, short dagger. There is no Kiku Ichimonju in any book.We do not guarantee this signature. The blade itself is good and thick Tanto. If you remove the signature, the blade will pass the NBTHK Hozon Token.
