The twentieth century nearly killed the craft twice: wartime distortion, then the occupation ban. The NBTHK’s founding in 1948 and licensed forging from 1953 rebuilt the sword as an art, crowned by Living National Treasures and the mukansa rank.
Sadayuki's real name was Yamamura Toru, born in Meiji 42, lived in Kokubu, Nankoku City, Kochi Prefecture, and his teacher was Yamamura Yoshisada, a student of the first generation Kawashima Tadayoshi; he was selected many times for the Shinsakuto Exhibition. Perhaps because he held his local predecessor "Sa Yukihide" as his ideal, there are many works where he aimed for the style of "Sa Yukihide." This tanto is also thought to be a work that copied Sa Yukihide. *This koshirae is not the work of a professional.

Without one, the attribution is the seller’s own assessment and has not been independently verified — treat it with caution and ask the dealer about certification before buying.
