Shinogi-Tsukuri,
Ihori-Mune Wakizashi. Full
length Bo-Hi resolves in
Maru-Dome.
Well-knit
Mokume Hada is strongly
mixed.
Kotetsu style
Chu-width Gunome, riding an
Asaki-Notare line. Nie Sunagashi
brushes the distinct Hamon and
falling Ashi makes the famous
mark. A few small, wet drifts of
Nie ride the Habuchi through the
upper - which shows an added
exuberance above the generally
Kotestu-style work.
Ubu Nakago, color
is dark and excellent. Yasuri
stands strongly. The
Mei is uniquely stylized.
