I did some quick testing about the unlock conditions, and it seems that the actual trigger for Murasame giving Hephaestus to you is entering the Crypt Spire and not defeating the Successor of the Throat.
This is ridiculous. Why in the hell would they give you the one code clearly designed for dealing with that area, AFTER progressing past that area? Everything they give you before hand makes perfect sense!
