Fujiwara Sadayuki There are not many Sadayuki - the first is Oei, another O-nin, Then there are the Takata smiths with different names working in Bungo through out the Muromachi. This is not one of them.
The Momoyama is the Unification we hear attached to the name of Tokugawa and the Shinto swords. Actually, the Unification came with the Taiko, Hideyoshi - whose castle was on Momoyama hill. After the ascendancy of Hideyoshi and the Toyotomi, the Momoyama brings really fine, especially strong and proud swords to Japan. These Momoyama smiths became the great late Koto masters, such as Kunihiro, who taught the kids in Edo how to make Shinto. This Sadayuki is known for his quality
and ability to make attractive and, as described by the Japanese, "Splendid"
Yakiba forms. So he is referred to as the Fujiwara Takata
- as he signed with the Fujiwara.
