From Aoi Art: This work has similar points to the works of Kawachi Daijo Yukihiro, but the skills are little bit kinda tight, young. However, Ashi and Ha moves very actively in the blade, it is an undoubted well-made sword. Those days, sword smiths started to make swords, only which they can earn money, so they made lots of works with gorgeous Jigane and Hamon. This work is a powerful and solid work, and this has to have helped a lot for the numbers of orders. This is slightly short, but it has the weight of 795g, really in a healthy condition. We truly recommend this one for you. If you want to ask us to polish this sword, additional polishing cost will be JPY50,000.
