Here is a Mukansa Swordsmith Kanekuni Ogawa (son) - Ogawa Mitsutoshi This is Signature works of his - he is known for making Sukehiro utsushimono and for creating the real Sakabato from Ruronin Kenshin. For those who don't know, Sukehiro was the pioneer of this magnificent Toranba (Surging Waves) Hamon. Is it not the most magnificent hamon you've ever seen?
