I agree with the description. That said, there appear to be some condition issues on the blade. I'm a little puzzled by the changes of wood color under the metalwork.
My understanding is its intended purpose was for a woman to defend her honor, in a society where a woman's place was defined by strongly Confucian values. Best, F |
