History and Legacy: Hailing from Kuwana in Ise Province, Muramasa, known as “Yotomuramasa,” holds a storied past. The Tokugawa family’s unfortunate encounters with Muramasa’s swords contributed to the belief in their ominous nature.

Unique Features: This Tanto, boasting a blade length of 28.8 cm and a subtle curvature of 0.3 cm, comes with an NBTHK Hozon Paper, adding authenticity and value.

Preservation and Certification: Rest assured of the Tanto’s authenticity and preservation, as it comes with NBTHK Hozon Paper and Japan Art and Sword Preservation Association Preserved Sword Device Appraisal Report, ensuring its status as a genuine and valued artifact. Collector’s Delight: This Muramasa Tanto is not merely a sword; it is a piece of history, encapsulating the craftsmanship and mystique of one of Japan’s legendary blacksmiths. Acquire this rare treasure to own a tangible connection to the fascinating legacy of Muramasa. Muramasa blades are extremely rare in the market today, with prices skyrocketing to the point where they are nearly unobtainable. This distinct history is unique to Muramasa. Investing in a Muramasa blade may prove to be financially rewarding in the future. It is also said that most Muramasa blades are tanto, with long swords being exceedingly rare.
