Antique Japanese Sword Daisho Signed by Kunitsuna/ Kuniyuki with NBTHK Tokubetsu Hozon Certificate and Hozon Certificate 【Description】 -Katana This blade was signed by Sagami no Kami Fujiwara Kunitsuna (相模守藤原国綱) in the third year of the Meireki era (1657: Earky Edo period). He was an apprentice of the first-gen Echizen Kanetane. He belonged to Shimosaka School located in Echizen province (Today’s Fukui prefecture). He is also known as Taheibei (多平兵衛). He received an honorable official title of Sagami no Kami from the imperial court for his excellent craftsmanship. He moved from Echizen to Edo city in his career as well. It is said that the first-gen Yasutsugu was the founder of the Echizen Shimoasaka school. He was born in Shimosaka town in Shiga prefecture at the end of the Muromachi period (Late 16 century ). He built his career there until the beginning of the Keicho era(1596). However, he moved to Echizen province due to the relocation of the lord he served. He eventually was noticed and supported by Matsudaira Hideyasu, the third son of Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was the founder of the Edo government. Hideysu was the feudal lord of Echizen province during the early Edo period. With the support of Hideyasu, the first-gen Yasutsugu was able to establish the Echizen Shimosaka school. And his school’s fame became nationwide. By Hideyasu’s recommendation, the first-gen Yasutsugu became Okakaekaji for the Tokugawa shogun family, meaning that he exclusively forged swords for the Shogun family. Yasutsu was acknowledged by the first and second Tokugawa Shoguns, Tokugawa Ieyasu, and Tokugawa Hidetada. The first-gen Yasutsugu received 康(YASU) from Tokugawa Ieyasu and changed his maker’s name. He was also allowed to inscribe the holly oak symbol(family crest of Tokugawa) on the tang. The school flourished during the Edo period and trained many skilled apprentices. We believe Kunitsuna mastered superb level of the craftsmanship by belonged to this school. Echizen province was prosperous during the Edo period, being ruled by the Echizen Matsudaira clan, a direct retainer of Tokugawa clan who ruled the Edo government. Many skilled swordsmiths moved to Echizen from different regions because of high demand among Samurai who lived there. Among them, there were many renowned swordsmiths who were originally from the Mino province (Gifu prefecture). They are called Echizen Seki swordsmiths. His master, the first-gen Kanetane was one of them. -Wakizashi This blade was signed by Yamato no Kami Fujiwara Kuniyuki (大和守藤原国行), who belonged to a prestigious school named Takada (高田). He was active during the Kanbun era ( 1661-1673 : Early Edo period). Kuniyuki played an important role to make Takada school prosperous during the Edo period. It is said that Kuniyuki served Ogyu Matsudaira clan, who ruled Funai castle in Oita prefecture. Ogyu Matsudaira clan was from Tokugawa Shogunate linage and Kuniyuki exclusively forged blades for this clan. Takada school was founded by Takada Tomoyuki in Takada village, Bungo domain (Ohita prefecture), during the Nanbokucho period. (1334-1338 A.D). Takada Tomoyuki went to Bizen province(today’s Okayama prefecture) to master the sword-forging techniques of BIZEN and returned to the village and trained his apprentices. That is how Takada school started. During Sengoku Period (the warring state period: from late 15 C to late 16 C), the Takada school forged many swords for many Samurais in Kyushu island. It is said that the reputation of the blades forged by Takada school was close to MINO or BIZEN swords, two of which are the most famous sword forging places. The Bungo domain was ruled by Otomo Yoshishige (Sorin) during the Sengoku period. Yoshishige and his domain built a strong military and political base there. Yoshishige was known as one of the most famous warlords on Kyushu island. It is said that Takada swordsmiths forged swords for those who served the Otomo clan. Generally speaking, Kyushu island was prosperous in
