This is a Higo style iaito featuring frosted silver accessories; considered as a popular iaito in its class. The tsuba, Higo Mokko, is a subtle blend of embossed metal and traditional Higo symbols, finished in flat black. In contrast to the mostly dark clours, a dazzling, silver sansho (pepper flower) is placed on white ray skin; wrapped in black or brown cotton tsuka-ito. In relation to the traditional silver Higo ishime (matte textured) Fuchi/Kashira; chooses either a glossy or matte finnish from three different saya, kuroro (glossy black), kuro-ishime (matte black), cha-ishime (matte brown). All the saya include hitodome. One may select either suguha or suguha-gunome (signature hamon) on the iaito's toshin.
