Long shinto katana signed Kikimon Ichi Yamashiro no Kami Fujiwara Kunikiyo 山城守藤原國清. Nice temper of rounded gunome midare with ashi. Jigane is a rough itame with koitame. Chikei is seen. Some small areas of loose hada. This type of rough hada is sometimes seen in blades of the Horikawa Kunihiro school. The boshi is healthy, but a but difficult to see as the blade is in old polish. Tang has the jiri cut, byt we believe that the hama hi is still original. In shirasaya.
