This antique Japanese Katana is attributed to the Jyumyo school from the early Edo Period (Early-Mid 17th century), as appraised by NBTHK. The Jyumyo school, originating in Yamato and moving to Mino province, was renowned for its swords, often given as gifts due to the hopeful meaning of their name. The blade features a Mino-DEN style with Togari in a straight line and random temper line, and comes with a full koshirae mounting including a Nanten-themed Fuchi-Kashira and Kiku-patterned Menuki.
