Kashu

The Kashu was a sword that once belonged to Baroque Works agent Mr. 11. After his loss in a duel with Tashigi of the Marines, she claimed the sword for herself. It is one of the 50 Ryō Wazamono Grade Swords.

Like Shigure, Kashu has a four-petal-shaped tsuba, though those petals are round not tapered.

Abilities
Nothing is known about what Kashu is capable of, since Tashigi wasn't shown fighting with it.

Trivia

 * Though using Kashu in the manga from Chapter 158 on, Tashigi never used this katana in the TV show since she still carries Shigure in all of her appearances.
 * Kashu is only seen and mentioned by dialogue in Episode 79. But there it has a common round tsuba.
 * The sword is the second known grade sword to be claimed by Tashigi and taken from a criminal, the first being Yamaoroshi from Billy the Orca Killer.
