二十世紀は二度この工芸を殺しかけた。戦時の歪みと、占領下の禁令である。1948年の日刀保設立と1953年の作刀再開が刀を美術として再建し、人間国宝と無鑑査がその頂に立つ。
NihontoWatchNihontoWatchKurihara Hikosaburô Akihide (栗原昭秀, 1879-1954) was an extraordinary figure who left a profound impact on the sword world from the Meiji through the early Shôwa eras. By mentoring legendary craftsmen such as the future Living National Treasure Miyairi Yukihira (宮入行平) and Amata Akitsugu (天田昭次), who dedicated himself to the research of classical masterpieces, Akihide helped build the foundation of the modern swordsmithing community that thrives to this very day. This delightful tantô was crafted by Akihide himself, and it carries a deeply personal history. It was presented as an omamori-tantô, a talismanic gift, to celebrate the birth of his granddaughter. From the very beginning, this was a sword made not for battle but for love. The blade features a beautifully forged itame-hada, and the hamon is a flowing notare alive with kinsuji and sunagashi, ko-ashi and thick nie throughout. But a sword like this is much more than what can be seen in the steel. Following Akihide’s passing, his disciple Amata Akitsugu, himself destined to become a Living National Treasure, continued to visit Akihide’s granddaughter and personally maintained this blade each time he came. It was a most cherished piece, tended by a master’s hands out of devotion to his teacher’s memory. This is a tantô that deserves to be gifted again. Perhaps to celebrate a birth, as it once was. Perhaps as a wedding gift to mark the beginning of a new life together. Whatever the occasion, let this tantô carry its story forward into a new home.
