There are works made in from the start of the Bunmei era to the Kyoroku era.

We can see Bo-Utsuri clearly. The blade is long enough and has Bohi and Sanskrit characters on the both sides. Hamon is Sakasa-Choji of trace of Kanemitsu. The tip gets sharper and turns back. Moreover, the gold-inlayed Mei says that the tester cut Ichinodou(the first torso) successfully by his one hand. The blade is thick: Nakago is as thick as Shinogi in Hamachi. This sword has been preserved really carefully. It is really rare that Koto has Saidan Mei, and we have searched for other samples, but we haven\u2019t found any. This is the very unique item. We suppose that this sword is the only Koto that has the gold-inlayed Saidanmei in this world. This sword deserves to be Juyo Token and we truly recommend this one for you. \tDr. Kunzan rarely writes \u201eKasaku(great work)\u201c. Tsuruta was astonished by the healthiness of the blade.<\/p>\n<p>NBTHK the 23rd Juyo Token(Re-issued)<br \/>\nKoshirae: NBTHK Tokubetsu Hozon Tosogu<br \/>\nAoi Art estimation paper: whole Oshigata<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"25%\" height=\"25%\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595-3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"25%\" height=\"25%\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595-4.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"25%\" height=\"25%\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595koshirae.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595koshirae.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"25%\" height=\"25%\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595paper-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595paper-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"40%\" height=\"40%\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595paper-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595paper-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"40%\" height=\"40%\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595paper-3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595paper-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"40%\" height=\"40%\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595sayagaki.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595sayagaki.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"40%\" height=\"40%\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595_p.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2026\/26595_p.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"70%\" height=\"70%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AS26595 Wakizashi in Shirasaya with Koshirae(NBTHK the 23rd Juyo Token)(Koshirae: NBTHK Tokubetsu Hozon Tosogu) Signature :\u3000Bishu Osafune Tadamitsu\uff08Hikobei) \u5099\u5dde\u9577\u8239\u5fe0\u5149(\u5f66\u5e73\u885b\uff09 Bunmei 18 Nen 2 Gatsu Hi. \uff08February, 1487\uff09 \u6587\u660e\u5341\u516b\u5e74\u4e8c\u6708\u65e5 Gold inlayed Mei: Kanbun2Nen February 10th Yamano Kauemon 61 Sai Nagahisa (Kao) \u91d1\u8c61\u5d4c\u9298\uff1a\u5bec\u6587\u4e8c\u5e74\u4e8c\u6708\u5341\u65e5\u3000\u5c71\u91ce\u52a0\u53f3\u885b\u9580\u516d\u5341\u4e00\u6b73\u3000\u3000\u6c38\u4e45\uff08\u82b1\u62bc\uff09\u3000\u3000 1 No Do Katateuchi Saidan \u58f1\u30ce\u80f4\u7247\u624b\u6253\u622a\u65ad Sayagaki by Dr. Kunzan: Bishu Osafune Tadamitsu Bunmei [&#8230;]\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[147,128,122],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-34075","product","type-product","status-publish","product_cat-masterpiece","product_cat-wakizashi-en","product_cat-sword-en","first","instock","sold-individually","shipping-taxable","product-type-auction"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sword-auction.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/34075","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sword-auction.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sword-auction.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sword-auction.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34075"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sword-auction.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=34075"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sword-auction.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=34075"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sword-auction.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=34075"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
