Special feature : The Uda school is said to have originated in Yamato province.
The founder Kunimitsu moved to Ettyu province in the last Kamakura period.
The texture of jitetsu is a point worthy of appreciation. Especially
conspisious chikei appeals us strongly.

This blade has very deep Nioikuchi, and on the surface, it looks like a
Taima or Norishige,
If this blade will be more polished, this blade will be more beautiful.
We strongly recommend this fantastic sword.
