Description
Wakizashi by the famous Yokoyama Sukenaga.  Jo saku rated, Sukenaga was a very famous smith from the well reputed Shinshinto Yokoyama School.  Done in their traditional Bizen style, this is a very nice wakizashi with a nice choji midare hamon made up of nioi.  There are lots of ashi within the hamon and can be described as very hanayaka.  A fine ko-itame jigane shows very nicely.  There are 2 small flaws, but nothing detracting and as it is in a good polish, there are no risk factors for restoration.  Tang is original and in mint condition, 1 hole.
