Muromachi turned sword making into an industry: the uchigatana rose with massed infantry warfare, Osafune and Seki produced bundle swords beside custom orders, and the Ming trade carried Japanese blades abroad by the tens of thousands.
This is a yari by Sadayoshi, dating to the early to mid Muromachi period. The blade measures 34.25 cm in length and features a prominent loach neck. The tang has two mekugi-ana and the yari comes with a black lacquered scabbard and remnants of the koshirae.
