The sword shows the smith making an exceptional effort to reproduce the work of the Bizen Ichimonji smiths. The hamon is a wild and florid choji-midare that is filled with activity. Kinsuji and sunagashi are everywhere. The jihada is a well done itame. Note the very narrow shinogi-ji and the wide ji. The blade has a beautiful sugata with deep sori. It is signed with a nijimei of Tomomaro and dated Dec. 1941. In shirasaya with a well-done niju habaki.
