Furthermore, together with the sword blade there remain the scabbard and hilt of jintachi style (the style of sword designed specially for use on the battle field); a Kinnashiji-painted scabbard and a Itomaki (string-wound) hilt, however these fittings were produced in the Edo period and are different from the original when the sword was made. |
尚、刀身と共に金梨地鞘糸巻拵えの陣太刀様式の外装が現存しているが、この拵えは江戸時代に製作されたものであり、作刀当初のものとは異なる。 |
