This wakizashi is an o-suriage mumei blade attributed to Ujifusa, originally a long katana of 2 shaku 7 sun that was shortened to a more manageable length. Ujifusa was active from the late Sengoku period to the early Edo period, moving from Mino to Owari province. The lineage includes Wakasa no Kami Ujifusa (active around Genki/Tensho era, serving the Oda clan) and his son, Hida no Kami Ujifusa (active around Keicho era).
