Descrição
Favored by those who wish to conceal the fact that they are armed, the shikomizue is a special sword mount that is indistinguishable from a wooden cane, walking stick, musical instrument, or other such mundane item. What appears to be a harmless, everyday object is actually a sheath for a blade or chain. This allows the carrier to avoid suspicion while bringing their blade into places weapons are not normally allowed, such as tea houses, temples, or even courts.
Weapons of this nature are considered violations of the Bushidō tenets of Courtesy (Rei), Righteousness (Gi), and Honor (Meiyo); as such clan samurai view them as suitable only for honorless dogs. A person using a shikomizue selects one sword they own to custom fit to it. This weapon gains the Concealable and Subtle item qualities while sheathed in the shikomizue. (Cost: 2 koku. Rarity: 7. Qualities: Forbidden, Subtle.)
