Aoi Bijyutsu.This sword is nice sword so someone imitated as Koto blade like Samonji. He was a student of the Kiyomaro and helped him for making swords. so his work is very similar with Kiyomaro.
On the Kiyomaro Taikan, his sword is mentioned on the bulk.

From Aoi Art : This work was so good that it was probably unnamed, and the polished was done and made as it to an old sword.
It is considered to be a work. It is a pity that it is thought that we aimed at the lSamonji sword from a beautiful Jigane(texture).
i Iwai Kiyomaru Masatosh is a disciple of Kiyomaru and produces works that are very similar to his master.
Masatoshi’s Oshigaya is also published in the Kiyomaru Encyclopedia, proving his excellent performance.
It was just a test, but I tried to make Iwai KishinmaruMasatoshi who was good, unsigned and look like an old sword.
It is thought that it is a work. It may have been well done and aimed at the Samonji anbokucyo period.
It ’s a work that was so well done. ”The Koshirae is also comes with a well-made work that matches it.
Tsubame and fuchigashira are zaimei (with signature )Kozuka is wonderful item
We strongly recommend this high ranking sword and also Koshirae(mounting).
