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.
This is a modern katana made by Sasshu ju Minamoto Moriatsu. The blade is light and well-balanced, making it suitable for Iai-do. It comes with a koshirae featuring a gold nashiji saya with bakelite reinforcement, silver habaki, and iron tsuba with crane design.
