This is a Jitte, an antique Japanese weapon. I received it from a family member about five years ago. I have obtained permission to sell it. I was told it is from the Edo period. I am a complete novice when it comes to antique art, but just looking at it makes me feel the history. Please see the photos for details. If you have any questions or would like additional photos, please contact me via the comments. Size: Approximately 34.5 cm in length Weight: 645g Thank you for viewing.
