Antique Japanese Sword Daisho Attributed to Takada Muneyuki/Signed by Sukehiro with NBTHK Hozon Certificate and Tokubetsu Hozon Certificate 【Description】 -Katana This blade is attributed to Takada Muneyuki (高田統行), who belonged to a prestigious school named Takada(高田). The maker’s name Tokiyuki lasted three generations from the Tensho to Meireki era (1573-1658). We believe the attribution was given to the first generation, who was active during 1573-1615 (Azuchi Momoyama- early-Edo period). 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 and Muneyuki received 統 letter, one of his maker’s name from Otomo family. And, Muneyuki played an important role to make Takada school prosperous during the Edo period. Generally speaking, Kyushu island was prosperous in sword-making because of its long trading history with Asian countries. Many feudal lords on this island fought against each other to gain an advantage in trading. Takada school received many orders as the demand increased among those lords. The material of Japanese swords(high-quality iron sand and charcoal) was abundant in mount Sobo Katamuki, located near Takada village. We believe Takada school prospered because of its geographic location and natural resources. -Wakizashi This blade was signed by Setsushu Jyu Fujiwara Sukehiro (摂州住藤原助広), who was active during the Kanei-Keian era (1624-1652: Early Edo period). Setsushu is another name for Settsu province (today’s Osaka prefecture). Setsushu Jyu means that Sukehiro resided in this area when he forged the blade. The maker’s name Sukehiro lasted three generations, and this blade was made by the first generation, according to its NBTHK’s appraisal. The first-gen Sukehiro was one of Osaka’s most skilled and influential swordsmiths in the early Edo period (Mid-Late 17th century). He was originally born in Tsuda City, Harima province (today’s Hyogo prefecture). Later, he moved to Osaka to become an apprentice of Kawachi no Kami Kunisuke, a renowned swordsmith in Osaka. The first-gen Sukehiro was also famous for being the father of Tsuda Echizen no Kami Sukehiro, one of the most prestigious swordsmiths during the early Edo period. According to the book (Kaihou Kenjyaku) published by Yamada Asaemon in the late Edo period, a blade forged by the first-gen Sukehiro was ranked as Saijo Owazamono (extremely outstanding sharpness). Asaemon was hired by the Edo government as an expert on Tameshigiri, or testing cutting. And in this book, he judged how sharp Japanese swords forged by prestigious swordsmiths were. Osaka Shinto The blades forged by Sukehiro are categorized as Osaka Shinto. Shinto is Japanese Sword terminology that refers to the swords forged during 1596-1781. The blades made in the Osaka area during this period are called Osaka Shinto. There are many famous swordsmiths in this Osaka Shinto era. After Hideyoshi Toyotomi built Osaka castle, Osaka city flourished as a castle town and became the business center. Many swordsmiths moved to Osaka to look for better opportunities. They not only forged swords for those Sam
