Una obra maestra de katana por Hitachi no Kami Muneshige, discípulo directo del primer Sukehira y hermano-discípulo del famoso segundo Sukehira. Esta espada ejemplifica la tradición temprana de Osaka shintō, mostrando el vigor y la artesanía de los años formativos de la escuela.

La hoja mide 71,8 cm con un suave sori de 0,9 cm, ancha en la base (motohaba 31,4 mm) y estrechándose elegantemente hacia el kissaki. Su construcción robusta, con motokasane de 6,8 mm, transmite fuerza y presencia. El hamon es un espléndido patrón de onda ondulante ō-notare-midare, lleno de hataraki activo (actividades) como ashi y yo, creando un juego vivaz de luz en el filo endurecido.

En el jihada, un itame bien forjado con ji-nie habla de la maestría de los herreros de Osaka, cuyo trabajo combinaba forja refinada con líneas de temple exuberantes. Esta espada captura el amanecer del estilo de la escuela Muneshige, un período en el que la creatividad y la brillantez técnica florecieron en los círculos de fabricación de espadas de Osaka.

Alojada en una shirasaya simple con un habaki de lámina de plata, la hoja se conserva en simplicidad elegante, asegurando la apreciación de su forma y metalurgia. Para el coleccionista serio, esto representa una oportunidad rara de adquirir una obra de un maestro importante de Osaka conectado con la gran línea Sukehira.
