quote...

KUNIHISA UDA [bUN'AN 1444 ETCHÛ] CHÛKOTÔ CHÛJÔSAKU

He is of one extended family of Uda, and is the son of Kunifusa. Wakizashi are predominant, jitetsu is ita -masame, hamon is

predominantly sugu or ko-midare with a narrow yakiba.

Signature: UDA KUNIHISA

Plate II: UDA KUNIHISA

Page 350

Plate I: UDA KUNIHISA

The "Kuni" in the katana mei of the Uda Ha is an unconventional writing style and it seems to be peculiar to Uda, but this was

common from around Ôei to Bunmei, and both the "Kuni" of Bizen Kuni Osafune Katsumitsu and the "Kuni" of Sôshû Jû

Kunitsugu are the same writing style as the "Kuni" of Uda. All of these are of around Bunmei, and this "Kuni" has a deep

significance in relation to the times. [TN]
