Perfect Japanese mirror polished. Magnificent "modern" blade from one of the best Japanese blacksmiths (ranked Mukanza) of the time. Very beautiful realization on the Bizen-Den style of the Kamakura era (12th century). Very elegant and powerful blade, with an impressive curvature. Not to be missed. |
