"Iron stone mokko shape, engraved carving on a very large tsuba that is imagined to have been used for the Odachi sword of the late Muromachi period. After more than 600 years, the iron has developed a unique texture, and the scattered engravings such as cherry blossoms, chrysanthemums, bellflowers, and crests have been beautifully preserved."
