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 tachi made by Masahira, a copy of the famous Onimaru Kunitsuna. The blade has a length of 78.45 cm and was made in 2020. It comes with a silver tachi habaki and shirasaya.
