Katana style mount with yasume-saya and throat cap
This is a normal katana mount, but adding a plain wood scabbard to rest
the blade and throat cap.
Usually the blade is rested in yasume-saya, and the koshirae scabbard is
capped to protect dust.
This system is older than the shirasaya system to preserve blade.
