[ Highlight ] After the Nanbokucho period, swordsmiths of the Kyo Nobukuni school migrated to Kyushu and began to make swords, which they called Tsukushi Nobukuni to distinguish them from their home country Yamashiro. The sheath is inscribed "attributed to Tegai Kanemasa by Zuiki-do" (Tegai Kanemasa, Zuiki-do kiwame).
