This is a wakizashi signed Bishu Inuyama-ju YORIHIRO-zou from the early Edo period (Manji era /ca 1658-) in Owari province. The blade features a Hira-zukuri construction with an Itame forging pattern and a complex mixture of small-gunome, Choji-ha and pointed Togari-ha elements in the Hamon. It is mounted with a single-layer gold-foiled Habaki and preserved in a plain white scabbard (shirasaya).
