There were three Kanehiro from Hizen. The work on this sword appears to be from the first generation but it's impossible to be sure. The sword is very beautiful in shape and style. The hada is well forged and rich looking. The hamon has fine quality hartaraki and this sword has very interesting mounts with Tokugawa mon in the lacquer work.
