    I guess that such an order was made at the birth of orderer's granddaughter in most cases.

    It is a ordered tanto made for Hisako.

    It is very rare to see a shinogizukuri tanto. When I see such a tanto, I usually think that it may be a reshaped blade from a broken katana. However, there is a swordsmith who makes genuine shinogizukuri tanto in Japan. Ref. 鎬造り短刀｜製作事例｜肥後虎-HIGOTORA

    Unfortunately, the blade is a fake. Although they tried to make the characters look like Japanese, the characters are not katakana or any other Japanese characters. They are just meaningless.
