Nagamichi was born in 1633 who was called Michinaga in his youth. Accepting Mutsu-Daijo in 1659, he changed the name to Nagamichi. Mr. Asaemon Yamada, known as a famous cutting tester ranked Nagamitsu Saijo-Owaza-mono in his book as one of twelve excellent swordsmiths at the point of sharpness. Quite a few swords forged by Nagamichi survive with the result of cutting test.<br \/>\nNagamichi the First passed away in 1685, aged 53.<br \/>\nThe workmanship of this katana shows a strong resemblance to Kotetsu<br \/>\nwho is a representative swordsmith of Edo-shinto. <\/p>\n<p>Koshirae :<br \/>\nSaya :black roiro saya.<br \/>\nTsuba :On the round shape brass tsubam engraved Petal of a cherry tree open work.<br \/>\nMenuki : family crest is engraved by syakudo and inlayed gold.<br \/>\nFuchikashira:On the syakudo nanako plate,<br \/>\nsome Petal of a cherry tree are engraved.<\/p>\n<p>From Aoi-Art:First generation Miyoshi Nagamichi is high reputation as<br \/>\nsaijyo oowaza mono (the best cut well sword in shinto blade) and<br \/>\nmany sword collectors in Aizu love this sword.
