The Kawachi family of Japanese sword smiths has been a famous sword smith family for 16 generations. Kunihira, the 15th generation of the Kawachi family, father of Shimpei, is certified as a Mukansa (non-judgeable level), the highest level of swordsmithing. He and his apprentices continue to make great swords today, reviving a technique that was not passed down and had ceased to exist.
Supporting their family, Simpei is spreading the value of not only his own family, the Kawachi family, but also Japanese swords themselves to the world.
In recent years, older swords are often regarded as more valuable and less expensive. However, even today there are many swordsmiths who make Japanese swords with great skill. Although swords may seem expensive at first glance, we believe that the long time, expensive materials and equipment required to create them should be appreciated as art pieces.
Due to the changing times and wars up to now, many times the technique of making Japanese swords has been restricted and the skills have been lost. We hope that the world will appreciate and support the legitimate value of these art pieces in order to pass on their lives and the modern art pieces that make them in the modern age.
We plan to support the Kawachi family and other swordsmiths by selling swords all over the world, and related projects. Please subscribe and keep up with the latest news.

If you know the end result in advance, then it’s not art. It is craft. No matter how amazing it is, it’s still craft and in no way is that an insult. It can be artistic. But it’s not art. Art can show craftsmanship, but it’s not craft. It’s art.

Mukansa is more accurately translated as "does not require judgement/examination (for exhibition)" instead of "cannot be judged".

Why are japanese swords checked without the hilt attached? To clean the oil under the handle parts?

ive got a keicho-genna era hizen-to that has alot of similarity to the koto yamashiro rai school. even back in the very early edo period smiths wer doing their best to make blades in the old almost forgotten traditions. the jihada is a mix of a very tightly forged ko-hada or konuka-hada with spots of mokume mixed in. the hamon is a very uniform suguha with no ashi. its a pretty stout blade the nagasa is just over 21 inches. its a big wakizashi with a modest sugata. i rescued it from a military antique store.
