Seki in Mino province supplied the base for the Kanesada line, whose blades the NBTHK places among the representative work of the Mino-den in the closing phase of the Muromachi period. The setsumei consistently pair Kanesada with Kanemoto as the two leading masters of Sue-Seki, the late Seki group active with Seki as its center, where (as one 31st-session katana notes) the Mino smiths flourished second only to Bizen.

Certifies a genuine blade worth preserving: a signature confirmed correct, or, if unsigned, an era, province, and school that the NBTHK can reliably identify.
