A Japanese Tanto with Old Signature and Aikuchi Koshirae

7.5" nagasa. 12.25" overall. Hira-zukuri blade with a two hole nakago that appears to be signed with long mei on both sides. Mei appears to be very old and is mostly obscured and illegible. Possibly late Muromachi period. Blade features a komaru boshi, ihori mune, itame-mokume hada, and suguha-notare hamon with nie. Koshirae includes a black/brown urushi lacquered tsuka, copper habaki, and saya that appears to be ishime-ji (stone surface) style with what appears to be rayskin and speckled mother of pearl or oyster shards. Saya is also wrapped with a braided blue sageo. Includes a plaid carry bag.
