Features:
\nBishu Osafune Sukesada was a group of swordsmiths active during the late Muromachi period. As this was the height of the Sengoku period, demand for swords was extremely high, and large numbers of swords were produced in Bizen and Mino provinces. Sukesada operated workshops employing many craftsmen and produced numerous swords bearing the same signature. However, it is believed that fewer tanto were made compared to katana. This particular tanto is a fine example, featuring well-forged, tightly packed jigane with beautiful chikei activity.<\/p>\n
