This is a cane sword that a blind swordsman used in a traditional swordsmanship movie, Zatoichi.  

It looks like a cane at a glance, but it is well made as an edge-rising sword with excellent performance to cut.  

It has the ability to cut down some bundles of bamboo or straw smoothly.  

The parts of sheath and knob are well painted by sap of the lacquer tree to make it give off classical atmosphere.  

It is good for self-protection decoration and sword training.
