This very fine shinto katana has a well forged hada that is very tight ko-itams. This Kaneyoshi is not a very well known smith but is listed in the Hawlys book under Kan467. The signature on this nakaga looks well struck. The hamon is very even and the style is Gunome. Beautiful Hataraki or activity is abundant and the overall feel of this sword elegant. The mounts on this sword are very nice also and complement the blade.
