[ Highlight ] Bizen swordsmiths active in the Bizen Osafune base in the mid-Muromachi period include Katsumitsu, Tadamitsu, Munemitsu, Norimitsu and Norimitsu. Many of these swords are thought to have been created over several generations with the same signature. This book of signatures is considered to be from the later generation of Munemitsu due to its iris-zukuri body and the characteristics of the Bizen-den base jigane forging method, in which itame grain and mokume are visible. The well-grained forged surface and the dynamic and turbulent blade can be enjoyed.

[ Conditions ] Old polish, with a small flaw in the center of the shinogi-ji on the front, otherwise excellent.
