Iaido Sword
Okisato Kotetsu Koshirae
This Iaito sword has remained true to this paradox of peace and violence that has made Kotetsu's work stand the test of time. Its Hamon(known to be Juzuba) maintains his liking for representing the prayer beads of a buddhist monk and Antique finished copper Fuchi/Kashira features a Samurai warrior and the armor in addition to a battlefield banner on Menuki.
