  • Ito-maki-no tachi scabbard decorated in gold nashiji lacquer with kiri-mon and karakusa scrolling. The metal fittings are all by the Goto school and are of shakudo inlaid with gold. The section of the scabbard near the suspension cords is wrapped with silk brocades to prevent the expensive lacquer from being abrade when the sword is worn with full armour. This mounting, for a fourteenth century sword, was probably assembled around 1850. [September 2001] Long sword (tachi) with scabbard in wrapped cord (ito-maki) style Blade about 1400; scabbard and fittings 1750–1800 Long tachi swords with deeply curved blades were used principally when fighting from horseback. They were worn with the cutting edge facing downwards. The flat silk cord that is wrapped around part of the scabbard prevented abrasion of the lacquer surface when the sword was worn with armour. This blade was slightly shortened when it was remounted in the 18th century. Blade signed ‘Morimitsu of Osafune in Bizen’ Steel blade; lacquered wood scabbard; patinated copper alloy fittings with gold inlay Gift of Ethel, Lady MacDonald Museum no.
