in my opinion, achieving a Toku Bestsu Hozon certificate, can't be a bad thing. The shinsa experts will have assessed it correctly, without any question! Therefore a close up pictute of the swords Umegane in the decription would have been disireable.

I knoww where it comes from a picture showing the site of the "Umegane Repair" is apperenttly missing !

sayagaki by Tanobe sensei

Rohan Asaraashi means literally "morning storm" and refers to strong storms in the morning which make it impossible for fresh snow to remain on moring peak's. but it can also refer to a heavy storm which makes you slip and fall on a wintery mountain, so we basically have here the same allusion as the nickname "Sasanoyuki"

a blade attributed to Naoe shizu Kanenobu refers to the lineage of swordsmith from the Naoe shizu shool (a branch of soshu tradition) Namboku-cho perode (14century) classic shizu style with a nickname kin zogan Gold inlaid signature " Asaraashi Moring storm" Theb Name Asaraashi /morning storm in this case, refer's to sharpness of this blade, whose cutting power is so pure and unstoppable that it leaves no traces
