Imported from Japan this Iaito features an attractive high quality iron Aoi leaf tsuba and extremely tight ito.

Attractive carp menuki. Ito appears to be synthetic cotton, seppa are copper and habaki appears to be brass. Defense area has two small chips (pictured) Tsuba is featured in Tozando and Nosyudo catalogs.
