[ Highlight ] Yamato no kami Yoshimichi was the second son of Osaka Tamba no kami Yoshimichi, called Mishina Uzaemon, and was active mainly from Joo (1652-1655) to Manji (1658-1661). The second generation around Enpo (1673-1681) was called Shirobei and later Den'emon, who also lived in Himeji, Banshu, and was therefore also known as Himeji Yamato. This sword is considered to be the work of Yamato no kami Yoshimichi II, as it has a style with a "Choji" in the gunome line, a long final stroke of the character for "kami", and a five-character inscription with a large chiselled blade. This sword has a good appearance, is sound and has a sense of weight in its hand, and the jigane iron is brilliant.
