Features: Seiryuken Moritoshi was a swordsmith from Iwakuni(Yamaguchi prefecture). He was moved to Edo in 1837 and studied under Chounsai Tsunatoshi. He was such an avid swordsmith that he traveled all over the country to improve his skills and served a feudal lord in Iwakuni.\u3000His master Tsunatoshi trusted him so much that he sent his son to train under Moritoshi.\u3000He died in 1867 at the age of 66.<\/p>\n

Features:
\nThe evenly spaced Gunome-midare seem to convey the meticulousness and sincerity if Moritoshi devoted himself to sword making. It is a work with Itame-koma , which is rare for Moritoshi, and is sound and of excellent workmanship.<\/p>\n
