This particular Jutte features a long iron shaft and a brass crossguard, designed to catch and control an opponent’s weapon. The handle is expertly wrapped in rattan, providing a secure grip. This piece bears the marks of its historical use, with slight rust, small scratches, and a patina that highlight its age and authenticity. These imperfections add character to the weapon and serve as a testament to its history and craftsmanship. The Jutte is a symbol of authority and skill, and this piece would make an exceptional addition to any collection of Japanese antiques or weaponry. It embodies the power and responsibility carried by the samurai police during one of Japan’s most storied periods.
