Description
Up for Auction is a very nice signed Koto Wakizashi in Shira-saya. This is a Bizen Wakizashi by Sukemune dating around 1570-1590. Bizen Sukemune is rated Chu Jo Saku. It is thought that Sukemune may have died in the great Yashii river flood of 1590 as his activity stopped at the same time as the flood which killed many of the population. The sword is in very good old polish and you can clearly see the bright hamon and deep grain of the koto steel. The nakago is signed “Sukemune” and is ubu (un shortened) with one hole. This sword has a two piece habaki craved with a “rain” pattern. It is mounted in an original Japanese ho wood shira-saya. The sword measures 20 3/8 inches from Kissaki to Habaki. This is a very nice example of Sukemune’s work. Please use the pictures as part of the description.
