Description

This is an unsigned katana attributed to Yoshii Kiyonori from the Eisho period (1504-1521). It features a shinogizukure, iroi mune, chu kissaki, and sakizori. The blade is in fresh polish, mounted in shirasaya, and comes with an NTHK-NPO certificate. The attribution to the Eisho period suggests a fifth generation smith, though references typically list only four generations, raising questions about its exact lineage.
