This magnificent blade from the esteemed Inaba domain, present-day Tottori prefecture, is a proud testament to the deep-rooted traditions of sword-making.
This blade, weighing an impressive 1166g (41.12 oz) and spanning slightly over 78.3 cm (30.83 inches), is a rare find. The white sheath, inscribed by Bizen-shi, ensures its authenticity and quality. Such swords, surpassing a kilogram in weight with an accompanying pristine sheath, are indeed a rarity. To possess a blade of this magnitude and significance is to own a piece of Japan's intricate history.
About Kanesaki:
The name "Kanesaki" resonates deeply in the annals of Japanese sword-making. Originating from Inaba, the title has been carried down through eight generations, from the Edo to the early Meiji period. This particular blade was crafted by the seventh-generation Kanesaki, whose birth name was Heki Yazaburo. He hailed from the Mino Kanesaki lineage, having apprenticed under Kanemoto during the late Muromachi period, in the early to mid-16th century.
The prestige and rarity of this blade, with its historical connections and superb craftsmanship, make it an invaluable addition to any collection.
