Other Info and Full Description 

 

Hi Fellow Collectors! I have a Sunobi tanto from the late Nanbokucho period up for sale. Comes with a full shirasaya and koshirae set, and has two NBTHK Papers.

 

The more recent hozon papers attribute the blade to Uda Kunihisa, who is said to have been the son of Kunimune, and there were several generations of the same name from Oei to the end of the Muromachi period. 

 

The dragon and kanji horimono are intricate and well carved. Blade is in excellent condition with no flaws. You can find a full set of pictures and a verification picture with today's date and my name on it and HD images in the link here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1m2Q2wJBbKIlF_5N3RHMRYZONAr5isCrP?usp=sharing

 

Blade is located currently in the US but willing to ship anywhere that can clear customs. Send me a message with any questions or interest!, am open to any reasonable offers as well!
