Yamato-Shizu (Juyo Token)

This katana is one of the best I’ve ever seen attributed to the Yamato-Shizu school. It has far more hataraki than most Yamato-Shizu, in both the ha and the ji. Due to the incredible quality of nie found throughout this katana, I believe it would be attributed directly to Shizu Kaneuji, if not for the strong masame running through the jigane.
