The
Dragon Wakizashi "Tokuni" is a good complement to the Tokuni Katana from John Lee. The tsuba of the wakizashi is especially refined and was dark mottled. The ornamental rates of the Wakizashi are drawing the mystical mythical creature and were also refined.
Even today, the dragon plays a major role in Japan, especially during the New Year. In contrast to Western mysticism, the dragon in Japan is an auspicious mythical creature. The tsuba of this remarkable sword forms a dragon encircling the sword. The rest of the decorative rates also feature the mystical mythical creature.
