Notes At the end of the Muromachi period, the country was divided between the Tokugawa and Toyotomi factions, leading to numerous conflicts. As a result, demand for Japanese swords increased and many were produced.
Although unsigned, this work has been appraised by the Japanese Sword Museum as a Sue-Seki of the ancient Mino school.
Sue-Seki blades are renowned for their excellent cutting ability. This blade features a discreet gunome-midare hamon.
