[ Highlight ] Bicchū no Kami Kiyonobu was the son of Omi no Kami Kiyonobu and a swordsmith of the Tokunaga school of the Mino Seki Shichiryu style. He made swords in Mino during the middle of the Edo period, around the Enpo era. This is a well-shaped wakizashi with a well-tempered jigane (the iron of the blade) and a fine mixture of mokume (wood grain) and jinie (attached ground pattern), and the bright, undulating hamon (the pattern of the blade) is particularly powerful, with a lot of continuous tobi-yaki (flame pattern).

[ Conditions ] There is a slight flaw and cloudiness, but it is generally in excellent condition.
