The second blade ...a tanto that may be quite special and/or old....any comment on that would also be appreciated.

 

 

Appears to be a shinogi zukuri wakizashi, not a tanto. 

 

Not a good idea to rest the tsuba against the fuchi. 

 

Best not to handle the shakudo finished habaki without gloves on as it will pick up finger prints quite easily. 

 

Enjoy.

 

Regards,
