Mei (signature): Bingo no Kuni Yoshihiro Saku<\/p>\n
Information about the swordsmith:
\nName: Kubo Yoshihiro
\nTrained by: Yoshiwara Yoshindo<\/p>\n
Kubo Yoshihiro has received numerous awards in blacksmithing competitions. He has Mukansa status and is a living cultural heritage in Japan.<\/p>\n
From the very beginning of his career as a swordsmith, his aim was to forge blades that enjoyed the same prestige as the great works from the Kamakura period (1185-1333), which is considered impossible.<\/p>\n
Information about the sword:
\nNagasa (blade length): 24.8 cm
\nSori (curvature): 0.3 cm
\nNakago (blade fishing rod): Ubu<\/p>\n
The tanto is strongly influenced by a work of the famous Bizen Osafune blacksmith Kagemitsu. It has an unusual element known as \"Kagemitsu no Utsuri\". The hamon has a slight shading, a trademark of Kagemitsu blades.<\/p>\n
This detail was long considered impossible to reproduce. However, Yoshihiro has managed it with this blade and created a uniquely beautiful work.<\/p>\n
The offer includes a document from the AJSA (All Japan Swordsmith Association) confirming that it is a genuine Japanese sword.
\nThis sword is currently still in Japan. We will take care of the import process if you decide to buy it.<\/p>\n
