"SA YASUYOSHI"
YASUYOSHI(1) SHO-HEI (f: O-SA): Lived in OKIHAMA but 
     then moved to NAGATO to found the NAGATO SA. 
     He is said to have had a constant influence for 
     SA style, traveling to, or in association with,
     the AKI SA at OHARU. One theory says he is SA, 
     having the same name, SAEMON-SABURO. SA becoming 
     a title of YASUYOSHI and his school generally. 
     He certainly was an active master spreading SA 
     style throughout the southern reaches of Japan, 
     making a circuit through the NAMBOKUCHO between 
     AKI at OHARU and NAGATO, where YASUYOSHI(2) is 
     said to have resided and worked. 
     A YASUYOSHI MEI sharpens the eye. See AKI SA and 
     NAGATO SA. 
     Like SA, he is known for his TANTO. They 
     resemble his father's but are wider and longer - 
     NAMBOKUCHO DAMBIRA.

     HAMON: More even height than SA. NOTARE holds 
     KO-CHOJI of KO-ASHI within, while GUNOME juts. 
     Occasional TOGARI on the tops is a YASUYOSHI 
     theme and CHIKUZEN appraisal point. May seem 
     somewhat populated, and perhaps "Swept." 
     Japanese technicals usually reference
     O-KANEMITSU's GUNOME-CHOJI BA. NIOI-DEKI YAKIBA 
     runs with SUNAGASHI in thick bush-like MURA 
     KO-NIE and KINSUJI.
