Description |
| Nice wide Hirazukuri wakizashi
made by Masayoshi. This sword looks like a copy of a Nobukuni sword,
since it is done in the Yamashiro tradition. The style and shape with
the carving greatly resembles that of a fantastic Nobukuni sword.
Bohi and soe hi are also carved into the blade very well. On one side
there is an additional set of kanji reading ‘……”
. Blade hamon is a very, very nice suguha done in true nie deki. There
is a lot of nice nie crystal formation all through out the hamon with
large Soshu style kinsuji. Hada is a very well mixed itame with chikei
and ji-nie. Sword has a very strong shape, the wide and beautiful
curvature, add to its strength in appearance. Mitsumune in the Soshu
tradition. In very top polish , gold foil habaki and new shirasaya.
Masayoshi was a direct student of Suishinshi Masahide and it shows
well here of his ability to make great swords. |
