He is said to have originally belonged to the Naminohira school before later studying under Kiyomitsu of the Osafune school in Bizen. This blade exhibits distinctive characteristics of the Naminohira tradition, including an extremely thin suguha forged close to the cutting edge and a whitish utsuri.<\/p>\n<p>Kiyosuke is also renowned as the maker of Yaedatami, the personal sword of Hosokawa Y\u016bsai, the military commander from the Sengoku period. Unfortunately, the whereabouts of this celebrated blade are now unknown. The name Yaedatami is derived from a well-known anecdote praising its extraordinary cutting ability.<br \/>\nLikewise, this blade features a thin kasane and a keen, refined construction that suggests exceptional sharpness. Its jigane is beautifully forged. <\/p>\n<p>NBTHK Tokubetsu Hozon Certificate<br \/>\nAoi-Art estimation Paper<br \/>\nwhole Oshigata<\/p>\n<p>Please note: the price does not include the shipping fees.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26366-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26366-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"37%\" height=\"37%\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26366-3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26366-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"23%\" height=\"23%\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26366-4.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26366-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"30%\" height=\"30%\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26366paper-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26366paper-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"80%\" height=\"80%\" \/><\/a>\u3000\u3000 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ordering Number: AS26366 (Consignment Sale) Wakizashi in Shirasaya (NBTHK Hozon Token) Inscription: Sasshu Ju Kiyosuke \u85a9\u5dde\u4f4f\u6e05\u5de6 Kyoroku Go-nen Hachi-gatsu Hi \u85a9\u5dde\u4f4f\u6e05\u5de6 \u4eab\u7984\u4e94\u5e74\u516b\u6708\u65e5 (August 1532) We divide works in to Saijo Saku, Jyojyo Saku, Jyo Saku,and Regular Saku.
