The Enju school was founded by Taro Kunimura, the grandson of Rai Kuniyuki, who moved from Yamashiro to Higo. As such, the workmanship closely resembles the Rai school, characterized by a refined jihada and an elegant suguha hamon. This particular piece exhibits a calm and dignified atmosphere, with a beautiful jihada and a clear nioiguchi. The koshirae is also well-made, featuring high-quality shakudo fittings, making it an excellent piece for appreciation.
