Dai Hannya Nagamitsu, National Treasure tachi sword at Tokyo National Museum, Japan
The Dai Hannya Nagamitsu tachi features a 73.6-centimeter blade with a distinctive curvature of 2.9 centimeters, displaying refined craftsmanship from the Kamakura period.
Created by swordsmith Nagamitsu in the 13th century, this tachi was owned by significant figures including Ashikaga Yoshiteru, Oda Nobunaga, and Tokugawa Ieyasu.
The name references the 600 volumes of Dai Hannyakyo sutras, reflecting its historical valuation at 600 kan during the Muromachi period.
The sword resides in a dedicated exhibition space at the Tokyo National Museum, where visitors can examine its intricate hamon patterns and ridge design.
Following damage during the Great Kanto Earthquake when its storage collapsed, the sword underwent restoration while maintaining its original characteristics.
