He was especially renowned as a master maker of yari and enjoyed the patronage of the Tokugawa family and Fukushima Masanori, producing many outstanding works. The first-generation Masatsune was originally from Mino Province (present-day Gifu Prefecture) and first signed his works Kanetsune. After relocating to Komaki and later the castle town of Kiyosu in present-day Aichi Prefecture, he received the title Sagami no Kami during the Tensho era and changed his name to Masatsune. His exceptional skill earned widespread recognition, and the Masatsune line continued through successive generations until the end of the Edo period. Masatsune&#8217;s swords were so highly esteemed that legends arose claiming they possessed spiritual power, capable of curing fox possession and illness.<\/p>\n<p>Koshirae:<\/p>\n<p>Tsuba: Round shakudo nanako tsuba with gold iroe on the rim.<br \/>\nFuchi: Shakudo nanako ground carved with a family crest and decorated with gold iroe.<br \/>\nKashira: Horn.<br \/>\nSaya (Scabbard): Black lacquered sendan-kizami saya.<br \/>\nMenuki: Cranes motif with gold iroe.<br \/>\nKozuka: Shakudo nanako ground carved with a dragon motif and decorated with gold iroe.<br \/>\nWith kogatana.<\/p>\n<p>NBTHK Tokubetsu Hozon Token.<br \/>\nNBTHK Tokubetsu Kicho Token.<br \/>\nAoiArt estimation paper: Whole 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\/26342-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"20%\" height=\"20%\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342-3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"20%\" height=\"20%\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342-4.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"20%\" height=\"20%\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342koshirae.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342koshirae.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"20%\" height=\"20%\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342paper-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342paper-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"60%\" height=\"60%\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342paper-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342paper-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"60%\" height=\"60%\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342sayagaki.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342sayagaki.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"30%\" height=\"30%\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342_p.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26342_p.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"70%\" height=\"70%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ordering Number: AS26342 Wakizashi in Shirasaya with Koshirae (NBTHK Tokubetsu Hozon Token) (NBTHK Tokubetsu Kicho Token) Signature: Sagami no Kami Fujiwara Masatsune \u76f8\u6a21\u5b88\u85e4\u539f\u653f\u5e38 Shinto: Jyojyo Saku: Owari.
