Julien Gauthier

Newly arrived is a wonderful dagger accompanied by a wooden box for storage as well as a certificate of authenticity from NBTHK.

The sword is in very good condition with no faults such as flaws, rust, or chips. The jigane is itame hada and overall niedeki. The hamon is a practical, thin suguha that is both tense and elegant. The nakago is engraved with the inscription “Naoyuki” on the front and “Senshu Banzairaku” on the back. Naoyuki was a swordsmith of the Dotanuki school that flourished in the Higo region of Kyushu and was active at the end of the Edo period.

&nbsp;"Senshu Banzairaku” means a celebration of longevity and prosperity, and this dagger set was made as a celebratory gift for good fortune; in 2022, the Society for Preservation of Japanese Art Swords recognized the hozon and issued a certificate for it as a work worthy of preservation for future generations.

The koshirae is equipped with two types of koshirae: shirasaya and tanto koshirae. The tanto koshirae has fine kizami applied to the tsuka and part of the saya. The Saya is lacquered with a textured tame-nuri finish and decorative metal fittings.

This dagger set is a very auspicious piece and comes with a box for storage, so it is truly a prized piece that will be passed down from generation to generation.

Get it now as your family heirloom.

This item will be shipped to you directly from Japan after the transaction is finalized. We will apply for an export permit from Japan's Agency for Cultural Affairs and ship it once approval is granted. Please understand that this process takes approximately one month.

Swords will be shipped by air freight (UPS or EMS) in most cases but, should air shipment to the winning bidder's country not be possible, it will be sent by sea. In Belgium, private sales of Japanese swords are prohibited by law, so bids from Belgium are not permitted.
