拍品专文

Although the blade is a fine quality and typical Hizen sword, the low curve, almost in the shape of a Kambun shinto, is unexpected for this version of the signature of Tadayoshi I. However, there are many daimei among Hizen swords, and other generations (in particular the fourth) who also used the 'ju nin' signature.
