This listing from Ginza Choshuya features a katana signed Fuyuhiro, active during the late Muromachi period (around Tenmon era). Fuyuhiro was a prominent swordsmith in Wakasa Province, with the first generation said to have moved from Sagami Province around the Meio era. This particular blade, crafted by Kyuemon Fuyuhiro, who also forged swords at Matsuyama Castle for the Mimura clan in Bicchu Province, exhibits a graceful form with a high sori and a robust shinogi, reflecting a practical design for battlefield use.
