Up for auction is an original antique signed Japanese tanto dagger blade.This is the blade only with no fittings.Blade is somewhat rusty and has some pitting-nice piece to practice polishing,,,see images below.Tang is signed however I do not read Japanese..originally had two holes in tang but one was plugged up long ago....see picture below of tang.Not sure of exact age but would more than likely be 1800's or earlier....this is a real antique blade.Be sure and check my other auctions for several other blades I will be selling.This blade measures 13 1/4 inches long total and tang is about 2 7/8 inches of that.Would make a nice addition to any collection of original Japanese samurai items.Postage is 8.00 to the U,S, all other countries pay exact postage and we accept pay pal , money orders and checks after they clear....Thanks
