Japanese SWORD, wakizashi in Hon Dzukuri Form, with Torii zori and suguha hamon, fine grain mokume, signed, "Bizen...mune"
in shira saya mounts. Circa 15th century, length is 21.5 " some slight damage to blade, there is a "spider" rust mark that should be restored. I can recommend a Japanese in the US to do this for the new owner!
