Tanba no Kami Fujiwara Yoshifusa

c. 1673 Echizen

This is a beautiful hirazukuri wakizashi with horimono. The hada is itame and the hamon is nio with a sprinkling of nie. The horimono are exquisitely cut as is the mei. It is signed "Tanba no Kami Fujiwara Yoshifusa". This Yoshifusa was known for using a different kanji than most for "Yoshi"  which can be seen on this example. His works are rated Chujosaku by Fujishiro for his skill level and Wazamono for sharpness.
