Features:Tadahiro, also known as Shinzaemon, succeeded his father\u2019s name at the age of 19 after his father’s passing in Kan’ei 9 (1632). In Kan’ei 18 (1641), he received the title of Omi Daijo. He continued producing swords for 60 years until Genroku 6 (1693). Tadahiro was highly regarded for his chu-suguha hamon.
\nThe Nabeshima clan, which ruled the Hizen domain, sought to export Hizen swords domestically and strictly guarded the unique forging techniques of Hizen jigane, ensuring its exclusivity. As a result, Hizen swords were renowned for their superior craftsmanship and cutting ability.
\nThis particular work by Tadahiro exhibits a well-formed gunome with rounded elements, demonstrating exceptional craftsmanship with a varied and elegant pattern.<\/p>\n
