This falls under hidden weapons , this Soukou-toku were used by Edo police. Samurai were responsible for the police so due to the Mon on this one it may have belonged to a Samurai. This was filled with a combination of irritating powders including peppers. It was carried around the neck by a string and blown into the face of an opponent to temporarily blind them via a mouth oiece.This one still contains some of the powder.
