[ Feature ] [ Highlight ] This work, judged by its appearance to date from around the late Muromachi period, features a well-grained, forged jigane with a varied, small-scale wavy blade pattern. Although Tsunetoshi is not recorded in the Meikan (a book of signatures of swordsmiths), his signature identifies him as a swordsmith from Katayama in Bitchū Province. [ Conditions ] There are slight flaws and minor rust spots, but overall it is in excellent condition. The Wakasa-nuri scabbard and uchigatana sheaths are also preserved in excellent condition. |
