In Enpo 8 (1680), he passed on the title to the first generation&#8217;s real son and renamed himself Sakakura Gonnoshin Terukane. His later works are highly praised as masterpieces of Shinto, especially those with flamboyant toranba (large wave-like hamon) reminiscent of Sukehira&#8217;s style. This piece by the second-generation Kanesada (Sakakura Gonnoj\u014d Terukane) showcases excellent jigane and superb craftsmanship.<\/p>\n<p>Koshirae: Command Saber<br \/>\nRecently, this type of saber has become extremely rare, and this piece is in excellent condition.<\/p>\n<p>Aoi Art\u2019s Comment: He was a disciple of the first-generation Kanesada. After their encounter, he was adopted and took on the name Kanesada, signing as Echigo no Kami Kanesada. However, an official decree prohibited the inheritance of titles without permission, prompting him to change his name to Sakakura Gonnoshin Terukane.<br \/>\nIf polishing is desired, it is available for an additional 60,000 JPY.<\/p>\n<p>NBTHK Hozon Token<br \/>\nAoiArt estimation paper: Whole Oshigata<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"20%\" height=\"20%\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661-3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"20%\" height=\"20%\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661-4.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"20%\" height=\"20%\" \/><\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661koshirae.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661koshirae.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"20%\" height=\"20%\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661paper-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661paper-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\u201c60%\" height=\u201c60%\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661paper-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661paper-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\u201c60%\" height=\u201c60%\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661sayagaki.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661sayagaki.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"30%\" height=\"30%\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661_p.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2024\/24661_p.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\u201c70%\u201d height=\u201c70%\u201d \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Katana in Shirasaya with Saber Koshirae (NBTHK Hozon Token) Signature: Echigo no Kami Kanesada (Sakakura Gonnoshin Terukane) \u8d8a\u5f8c\u5b88\u5305\u8c9e\uff08\u5742\u5009\u8a00\u9032\u7167\u5305\uff09 Shinto: Jyojyo Saku: Settsu Province (We divide 4 sections for each sword as Saijyo Saku, Jyojyo Saku, Jyo Saku and Regular Saku) This work is ranked as Jyo Saku among the works of Echigo no Kami Kanesada.
