Overview
This Wakizashi by Phil Hartsfield features a double ground satin finished blade with nice hamon, .248" blade stock and 1.178" blade depth, hidden tang construction. The handle has a plum brown steel guard with brass pin inlays, black/yellow epoxied cord wrapped handle with brass eagle menukis. Comes with a leather covered paper linen metal scabbard. Has some small chips in the blade edge near the tip, has some light scratches and patina, otherwise good condition. NOTE: this knife does not have a makers mark on it, which I find odd, but it does have all the other qualities of a Hartsfield knife and came in from a collector of Hartsfield knives.
