Nagamaki style wakizashi made of tamahagane steel. Nagasa 16 inches. Overall length
23 inches. The hamon is very active as shown in the detail pictures below. The
saya was made by relief carving stylized clouds with the kanji HYAKUREN KOUMA.
The background of the saya has been "aged" to look rustic and resemble wood
grain. The fittings are made of copper that has been worked with tagane chisels
and punches driven by a hammer then patinated with rokusho. The tsuka shows a
traditional wrap with stingray skin and brown tsuka-ito.
