Niedeki, Ko Ashi and Yo working, Tohiyaki, Midarekomi Boshi with deep curverure.<\/p>\n<p>Special Feature : Sukehiro is one of the most important swordsmith among Osaka Shinto scene, there\u2019s 1st and 2nd generation Sukehiro and this sword is attributed to the 1st.<br \/>\nThe first so called Soboro Sukehiro was originally born at Harima and moved to Osaka later to work under Kawachi Kami Kunisuke 1st.<br \/>\nHis swords are well known for sharpness and designated as Saijo O-wazamano.<\/p>\n<p>Koshirae : Han Tachi Koshirae.<br \/>\nSaya : Unique sand-like Saya.<br \/>\nTsuba : Mokko

the Japanese sword map, his works look like Koto swords.<br \/>\nThis elegant sword could look like Yoshioka, Katayama Ichimonji.<br \/>\nThe signature is engraved very well also.<br \/>\nThis sword is nearly 70cm in length, it\u2019s quite rare and special because the 1st Sukehiro\u2019s works are relatively shorter usually.<br \/>\nPersonally I have a high opinion of the swordsmith and strongly recommend this marvelous Ichimonji-utsushi sword. <\/p>\n<p>NBTHK Tokubetsu Hozn token \uff0aTo be issued soon<br \/>\nNBTHK Tokubetsu Kicho paper<br \/>\nAoi Art estimation paper : whole Oshigata.<br
