Blade and Mounting for a Slung Sword (Tachi)

The image shows a tachi sword and its scabbard. The sword has a long, curved silver blade. Its handle, wrapped in black material with white triangular designs, faces left. A small guard separates the blade from the handle. The scabbard is long and black with two metal pieces attached to the top; a loop of cord or leather protrudes from one of these pieces. The background is light gray.
