Jintachi (no) koshirae is the primary style of mounting used for Tachi, where the sword is suspended edge-down from two hangers attached to the obi. The hilt (tsuka) often had a slightly stronger curvature than the blade, continuing the classic tachi increase in curvature as you go from the tip to the hilt. The hilt was usually secured with two pegs (mekugi), as compared to one peg for shorter blades including uchigatana and katanas.

Jintachi is used frequently to refer to especially long blades with a reverse-curved hilt, a style of mounting never seen on historical nihonto.



This is a ceremonial Jintachi with a beautiful braided handle and carbon steel blade
