Hi Thomas Thank you its an excellent piece ,  it is a real monster in hand .

It's the dimensions/weight/strength that is being presented as unusual here, nothing to do with regular wakizashi. Need something for scale, like another regular wakizashi to see if the nakago is regular size and the blade is larger, making the nakago look small.
