兼房は、関善定派の刀工で、古くは室町前期永享頃の清左衛門兼房に始まり、関鍛冶の頭領である惣領職を代々務めた。兼房乱れを創始した大永頃の兼房、後に氏房と改名する永禄頃の兼房が有名である。永禄の兼房は、天分三年生まれ、名を河村京三郎といい、後に清左衛門と改め、弘治二年兄より惣領職を引き継ぎ、永禄十三年には、氏房と名を改め左衛門尉に任じられ、後若狭守に転じている。この刀は、銘・鑢目より永禄の兼房と思われ、村正風の箱刃を焼いて出来が良い。Kanefusa is a swordsmith of the Seki Zensei school, which began with Seizaemon Kanefusa around Eikyo in the early Muromachi period, and has served as the head of the Seki blacksmiths for generations.Kanefusa around the Taiei era, who founded Kanefusa Midare, and Kanefusa around the Eiroku era, who later changed his name to Ujifusa, are famous.Kanefusa of Eiroku was born in the third year of Tenbun, his name was Kyozaburo Kawamura, later changed to Seizaemon, and in the second year of Koji he was given the position of head of the Zensada family by his older brother.
