Bizen Osafune Norimitsu. This line continued from the late Kamakura period to the late Muromachi period, leaving behind many famous swords.

● Notes
・ As antique materials are used, there may be scratches, rust, etc. Also, I am not a professional knife maker. Please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for the quality of new manufactured goods.

・ Since it is made from a remnant of a Japanese sword, it is prone to rust. Think of it like a steel kitchen knife. The lacquered scabbard is particularly prone to rust due to poor ventilation.

・ Regarding the inscription, there is no certificate of authenticity, so the authenticity is uncertain.

・ As this item is listed on multiple sites, it may be out of stock depending on the timing.

・ Please take the time to read my profile as well.
