Other versions of this claim is that Mikazuki was so beautifully made, nobody even wanted to use him for battle. I don't have a sworce for this since I've only seen it floating around somewhere, but  I've been digging around a few E-books on Japanese swords. The most I've found is mostly his appearance and that he comes from the Sanjou school. That being said, Sanjou is known for making good quality swords, so Mikazuki was suitable for battle as any other sword.

Also quoting from the trivia above:

"Initially the favourite Tachi of the Kengo Shogun, Ashikaga Yoshiteru, who is said to have fought his last battle with it, Mikazuki was claimed on his dead body by the Miyoshi family. He was once owned by Nene (Kodai-in) (1549-1624), the wife of warlord Toyotomi Hideyoshi."
