This is a mumei, o-suriage katana from the late Muromachi period, measuring 69.9 cm with a shallow sori of 0.8 cm. It features a regular gunome hamon in nioi-deki over a tight ko-itame jihada, characteristic of wartime production. The sword comes with a complete katana koshirae featuring a red and black lacquer saya, an iron tsuba with gold and silver inlay, and a shakudo nanako fuchi with gold shishi.
