wakisashi signed 赤坂住兼宗 (Akasaka ju KANEMUNE).

[rodrig4]

good morning.
here is my latest acquisition and I have many questions.
the nakago takes me back to yamato school with yasurime takanoha and nakagojiri agari.
I post some photos that should save me from talking nonsense.

The signature is heavily shinto style.

Hada appears dense

But boshi and couple of other elements are Muromachi.

Nice transitional piece, I like it. They did decent work and made very few blades towards the end of Momoyama.
