[ Highlight ] At the western foot of Mount Wakakusa in Nara, there is a temple dedicated to the Thousand-Armed Kannon (Goddess of Mercy), and a group of swordsmiths who lived in the area are known as the Senjuin school. Of the five Yamato schools, the Senjuin school is the oldest, dating back to the late Heian period, according to an ancient tradition. This work shows the ancient style of the Yamato Senjuin school, with a deep koshi-zori attached body structure, a jigane with thick ground nie with itame grain mixed in, a straight blade with small ko-gunome alternate grains and ko-midare small wavy blade patterns, and a blade pattern with Kinsuji, sunagashi and fraying, and a blade with kui-chiga-bas. The flow masa near the blade on the front is pronounced, and the jiba is brilliant.
