The sword has a long wooden and hand wound grip that is very easy to handle. A robust tsuba laboriously decorated from both sides and a varnished wooden scabbard suplement this sword.

The wood is wrapped in genuine ray skin (samegawa), which is then wrapped in cotton tape. Underneath the cotton tape (tsukaito) are decorative elements (menuki), which are cast by hand in brass.
