[ Highlight ] Kozaemon Yukihira, whose real name is Miyairi Kei, was born in Sakaki-machi, Nagano Prefecture in Showa 32(1957). In 1977 he was introduced to his father, the living national treasure Miyairi Yukihira "宮入行平" ( 昭平 ). He also learnt to make swords from his master's high ranking pupil, Masahira Fujiyasu "藤安将平". It was in 1996 that he changed his name to "Kozaemon Yukihira", a combination of the names of his great-grandfather, Kozaemon "小左衛門", who wanted to become a swordsmith in the late Edo period, and his father, Miyairi Yukihira "宮入行平". He is a master of the Soshu Den style and has been awarded many special prizes at the New Master Sword Exhibition. He was certified as a top class modern swordsmith in Heisei 12(2000), and is also known as one of the most prestigious forging dojo producing excellent swordsmiths. This is a piece of Soshu-den with a high spirit, but the appearance of the blade, which attached nie in notare hamon, gives a feeling of calmness and Japanese taste.
