[ Feature ]
Form : A sturdy tanto with a flat tang, an iori-mune profile, a slightly wide blade width, a thick layer of grain, and no curvature.
Nakago : The nakago tang is raw, with file marks sloping downwards; the tip is raised and the pommel is chestnut-shaped, with a single mekugi hole.
Jigane : The jigane exhibits an itame-hada texture with ji-nie.
Hamon : The hamon is a cho-ji midare pattern, with well-defined feet and leaves, and occasional niibui.

[ Highlight ] Sukekane Yokoyama, originally named Shunkichi and Shunzaemon, was the adopted son of Sukemori Yokoyama and the brother-in-law of Yokoyama Sukenaga. He created swords from the late Edo period through to the Meiji era. He also inscribed his works with his signature as the 58th-generation descendant of Tomonari. This piece is a tanto of sturdy construction with a thick layer of grain; it features a well-grained jigane with a fine, well-defined grain, and a bright, vibrant nioguchi with a dynamic cho-ji midare hamon.

[ Conditions ] There are slight flaws, but otherwise it is excellent.
