Description

This is a robust Katana made by Fujiwara Nobufusa in Meiji 5 (1872), certified as NBTHK Tokubetsu Hozon. Despite the decline in sword demand during the Meiji period, this blade is a substantial work, weighing 1010 grams, featuring a wide and thick shape with a long kissaki. The jigane is a tightly packed koitame-hada, and the hamon is a nioi-base gunome midare with yo and ashi.
