Catalogue Note

 

 

Bizen Osafune Yasumitsu was the son of Osafune Shigeyoshi and is the master representing Oei Bizen smiths along with Yasumitsu.  (others are Iesuke, Moromitsu, Tsuneie, Morokage, Toshimitsu, Sanemitsu).    Katana and hirazukuri wakizashi are the main area of production.   They changed their tradition of simple hamon eg. notare in the late Nambokucho Bizen production and started introducing blade with  gunome hamon, mixed with choji  and specially bohi is the characteristics..  The size of hamon pattern is smaller compared to Morimitsu. Occasionally, the pattern of the boshi is different on the two sides.  Horimono and grooves are commonly seen.
