专家说明

Accompanied by a certificate of registration as a Tokubetsu Kicho Token [Especially valuable sword] no. 255858 issued by the Nihon Bijutsu Token Hozon Kyokai [Society for the Preservation of the Japan Art Sword] on 16th September 1972

Jiro Taro Naokatsu (1804-1858) was the adopted son of Taikei Naotane, and excelled in the Bizen tradition of Naotane and his mentor Suishinshi Masahide. His work is frequently of such fine grain as to be not clearly visible, or muji [groundless] as seen on this sword.
