Antique Japanese Sword Katana Attributed to Hojyu with NBTHK Tokubetsu Hozon Certificate 【Description】 This blade is attributed to the work of Hojyu by NBTHK, the most reputable Japanese sword appraising organization in Japan. Hojyu is the group of swordsmiths prosperous during the late Heian period-Nanbokucho period(late 12th-14th century) in Mutsu no Kuni(today’s Tohoku region: Northern part of Japan). We assume this blade was forged approximately during the late Kamakura-Nanbokucho period(early-late 14th century). Hojyu swordsmiths belonged to Mogusa school, which functioned as the head branch. Mogusa school’s foundation dates back to the late 11th century when Oshu Fujiwara clan started to rule Mutsu no Kuni. And they were based in the city called Hiraizumi(平泉). There aren’t many remaining signed blades forged by Mogusa swordsmiths except Hojyu. Hojyu is the most famous one among Mogusa schools. Mutsu no Kuni had been ruled by the Oshu Fujiwara clan until Minamoto no Yoritomo(the shogun of the Kamakura government)ousted them. Many Hojyu swordsmiths moved to other parts of Japan as their master lost power. There are so many famous swordsmiths who were originally from this school, and they built the foundation of sword-forging in other parts of Japan, such as Bizen province. Hojyu swordsmiths were deeply involved in the formation of iconic Japanese sword’s characteristics. Hojyu is written as 宝(Treasure)&寿( Longevity) in Japanese. Because of the name, swords forged by Hojyu were believed to bring good luck and were treated as great gifts among Samurai. While this blade was shortened in the past, it still has 72.8 cm cutting edge and longer than the average Katana. You can see a lot of activities in Jigane (steel surface) and Hamon (tempering line). The Hi (groove) enhances its elegance and muscular appearance. This blade is appraised as a Tokubetsu Hozon Token(特別保存刀剣) issued by NBTHK(Nihon Bijutsu Touken Hozon Kyokai:日本美術刀剣保存協会). This authentication paper was only given to authentic Japanese swords, especially well preserved and high quality with artistic value. *Please keep in mind that there are a few Kitae Kizu on this blade while its overall condition is excellent. If you like to see the detailed condition, please feel free to contact us. 【 Blade】 Cutting Edge Length(Nagasa) : 72.8 cm( 28.66 inches) Curvature(Sori) : 2.0 cm( 0.79 inches) Hamon : The crystalline structure which forms along the cutting edge of a blade as a result of the hardening process Jimon(Jihada) : visible steel surface pattern created by folding and hammering during forging process Nakago : Nakago is the tang of the Japanese sword. Japanese swordsmiths left the black rust on the tang because it prevents red rust while the tang is in its handle. And the discoloration of the tang was created over time, and it is a great indicator for a Japanese sword specialist to estimate when the sword was forged. Habaki : Habaki is the equipment to make the blade not touch its scabbard inside. It prevents the blade from getting rusty and chipped. Authentication Paper : NBTHK TOKUBETSU Hozon Certificate for the blade (No. 1009800) NBTHK , also known as Nihon Bijutsu Touken Hozon Kyokai (the Society for the Preservation of the Japan Art Sword), is one of the oldest Japanese sword appraising organizations in modern-day Japan. They authenticated the blade on Dec 10th in the 30th year of Heisei (2018). They appraised it as Tokubetsu Hozon Touken, the blade especially worth preserving for Japanese society. The purchaser will receive this original certificate as well. We can also translate what is written into English and make a PDF file for your record if you request. Registration Number : Tokyo 319002 The Board of Education in Tokyo prefecture issued a registration paper for this sword . It is called Jyu Token Rui Torokusho(銃刀剣類登録証). Bunkacho(The Agency for Cultural Affairs) acknowledges a Japanese sword with this paper as a work of art. The sword needs to be traditional
