Un capolavoro katana di Hitachi no Kami Muneshige, discepolo diretto del primo Sukehira e confratello del famoso secondo Sukehira. Questa spada esemplifica la tradizione shintō di Osaka dei primi anni, mostrando il vigore e l'artisticità degli anni formativi della scuola.

La lama misura 71,8 cm con un delicato sori di 0,9 cm, larga alla base (motohaba 31,4 mm) e affusolantesi elegantemente verso il kissaki. La sua robusta costruzione, con motokasane di 6,8 mm, trasmette forza e presenza. L'hamon è uno splendido ō-notare-midare, un motivo ondulato ondeggiante pieno di hataraki attiva (attività) come ashi e yo, creando un vivace gioco di luce sul bordo indurito.

Nello jihada, un itame ben forgiato con ji-nie testimonia l'artigianato dei maestri di Osaka, il cui lavoro combinava una forgiatura raffinata con linee di tempratura sfarzose. Questa spada cattura l'alba dello stile della scuola Muneshige, un periodo in cui la creatività e la brillantezza tecnica fiorivano nei circoli di produzione di spade di Osaka.

Conservata in una semplice shirasaya con un habaki in foglia d'argento, la lama è preservata in elegante semplicità, assicurando l'apprezzamento della sua forma e metallurgia. Per il collezionista serio, questa rappresenta una rara opportunità di acquisire un'opera di un importante maestro di Osaka collegato alla grande linea Sukehira.
