Other Info and Full Description : Shinto Period Wakizashi signed Yasuhiro. The blade does not have papers. I purchased this sword in an old says without a handle, so I had Brian Tschernega make a shirasaya and gold foiled habaki for this sword. I knew I would end up losing a bit of money having the work done, I didn't feel right leaving the blade how I had gotten it, I felt it deserved more to help preserve it for the future.
