Tanto with antler fittings


Tonkotsu

Recommended Posts

Here is a tanto with all of the fittings made of antler. The blade is unsigned but the kozuka is signed. The hamon is visible in the photograph. I have enjoyed the quality of the carving. Any information you could give me would be greatly appreciated since my knowledge about Japanese swords is very limited. I can take additional photographs if necessary.

Thank you,

Dick
