Special feature:Izumi Daijyo Fujiwara Kuniteru is almost sword length sword. I think Izumi Daijyo Kuniteru must be communicated with Ise Kami kimiteru.

From Aoi Art: It is a healthy work with a length of 69.9 cm and
a sword size, wide and fluffy like Nikuoki looking at the surface of a clam, with moderate Sori and long Kissaki and heavy weight. Yasurime is a clear and healthy work.
In Hamon's work is wonderful, ashi is soft in nioikuchi's deep hamon, Habuchi is soft, sunagashi in In Hamon, and long Kinsuji works wonderfully, aiming at old Kamakura sword Rai Kunimitsu. The result is the best work of Izumi Daijyo Fujiwara Kuniteru. Please do not miss it. I think it is a wonderful result.
