Description

This antique Tachi, signed by Yoshitsugu, dates to the Muromachi period (1336-1573), though the exact smith is uncertain due to multiple smiths sharing the name. It comes with an NBTHK Hozon Certificate, Shirasaya, and Koshirae, which features a dragon-themed Menuki and a wave-patterned Tsuba. The blade measures 77.7 cm with a curvature of 1.8 cm, reflecting the practical and artistic demands of its turbulent era.
