- 越前康継は、徳川将軍家及び越前松平家に抱えられた刀工で、通称葵下坂と呼ばれ、初二代ともに新刀最上作に列する。古上作の写しを得意とし、大名家伝来の正宗、貞宗、信国には康継の作と思われるものが多くあるという。初代康継は、近江国坂田郡下坂郷の出身で、美濃赤坂千手院広長の子と伝え、名を下坂市左衛門と称し、文禄年間に肥後大掾を受領、慶長六年（１６０１年）に越前入りした結城秀康より四十石の扶持を受けた。初期は越前下坂と銘し、慶長十一年頃に徳川家康及び秀忠により召し出され、鍛刀した際にその技量を認められ、家康の康の一字と葵紋を切ることを許され康継と改め、将軍家御用鍛治となり五十人扶を受ける。以後二代までは、隔年江戸と越前にて打つという。江戸三代康継は、二代康継の嫡子で、名を右馬助という。彼が十七歳の時に父が没し、初代康継の三男である四郎右衛門との間に相続争いが起こったが、江戸を右馬助が、叔父四郎右衛門が越前を相続することで決着し、以後下坂家は江戸と越前に分かれて作刀している。この刀は、反りやや浅く鋒詰まりごころとなる寛文新刀の姿で、地沸微塵に厚くつき、地景細かく入る精良な地鉄に、沸匂深い互の目丁子を華やかに焼き、足・葉太く入り、匂口明るく冴える名品である。Yasutsugu Echizen is a swordsmith held by the Tokugawa Shogunate and the Echizen Matsudaira family.
Known as Aoi Shimosaka, both the first and second generations are listed in Shinto's best work.He specializes in copying old Jousaku, and many of the Masamune, Sadamune, and Nobukuni, which were introduced by the daimyo family, are believed to have been made by Yasutsugu.
The first Yasutsugu was born in Shimosakagou, Sakata-gun, Ouminokuni, and was said to be a child of Mino Akasaka Senjuin Hitonaga, and his name was Shimosaka Ichizaemon.
He received Higo Daijou during the Bunroku era and received the possession of 40 stones from Yuki Hideyasu, who entered Echizen in the 6th year of Keicho (1601).Initially named Echizen Shimosaka, it was called by Ieyasu Tokugawa and Hidetada around the 11th year of Keicho.
He was recognized for his skill when he forged a sword, and was allowed to cut Ieyasu's character and "Aoimon".He becomes a blacksmith for the shogunate and he receives fifty men.After that, until the second generation, it is said that he will hit in Edo and Echizen every other year.
Yasutsugu, the third generation of Edo, was the legitimate son of Yasutsugu, the second generation, and his name was Umanosuke.
When he was 17 years old, his father died, and an inheritance dispute arose between him and Shirou-Uemon, the third son of the first Yasutsugu, but Umasuke inherited Edo and his uncle Shirou-Uemon inherited Echizen. After the matter was settled, the Shimosaka family has been making swords in Edo and Echizen.
