Ein vollständig funktionsfähiges gendaitō shinken von Taira (Hira) Sadashige, datiert August 1943 (Showa 18). Die Klinge wurde kürzlich poliert (togimi) und zeigt eine saubere, glänzende Oberfläche mit hervorragender Aktivität. Bei 62,5 cm mit gesundem 1,7 cm sori sind die Proportionen robust und lebendig, was ein sicheres Handling für iaidō, battō und tameshigiri ermöglicht.
Der hamon ist ein attraktives midare-Muster - eine unregelmäßige Welle, die an Stellen abgerundete gunome-Elemente mit sanfter notare-Wellenbewegung kombiniert. Es verläuft gleichmäßig von der Basis durch den monouchi und zeigt eine helle nioiguchi mit feiner innerer Aktivität unter Licht. Der gut definierte Grat und die reichliche motohaba 33,2 mm verjüngen sich zu einer starken Spitze (sakihaba 24,6 mm), während eine einzelne mekugi-ana die Montage sichert.
Das Schwert befindet sich in einer eleganten hochglänzenden schwarzen Lackscheide mit einem strammen, gut gefertigten habaki.
