This is a large-format sword encyclopedia that compiles information on the swordsmiths and examples of swords known as “Shin-to,” (新刀) which were forged from the mid Azuchi-Momoyama period (安土桃山時代中期) through the mid Edo period(江戸中期). It is a specialized reference work containing a wealth of information essential for authentication, such as inscriptions(銘), forms(姿), and Hamon(刃文)
An indispensable book for studying Japanese swords—you can only get it here! I don’t think you can find it in Europe. I highly recommend it!
