The full tang blade extends to the end of the hardwood handle and comes razor sharp and thick. The wooden scabbard (Saya) includes a gloss burgundy red finish, nylon cloth, and metal Kurigata fittings. The handle is wrapped with real ray skin. The tsuba depits a Date Masamune design. Date Masamune (September 5, 1567 – June 27, 1636) was a regional strongman of Japan's Azuchi–Momoyama period through early Edo period. Heir to a long line of powerful daimyos in the Tohoku region, he went on to found the modern-day city of Sendai.
