Famous for large KOSHIBA. Can be YAHAZU-MIDARE BA and HAKO-NOTARE BA, SENGO style. O-GUNOME MIDARE. May appear as rounded O-GUNOME grouped on a CHU-SUGU line. NAKAGO has the SENGO swelled belly to HA-side raised KURIJIRI. Many of the NAGA character of the 4th will seem halting. The horizontal bar of the NAGA and YOSHI tend to have ends where the right side is pointed down and the left, up. HEIANJO starts with MITSUNAGA's line creating foundations from which the SUGAWARA smiths take their place in O-EI. The O-NIN disintegrates YAMASHIRO as proud smiths keep their name through exile, spawning the eventual travels of NAGAYOSHI. BUN-GI is a forest of SENGOKU competitors finding main players such as SENGO MURAMASA, the SOSHU and SEKI, SHIMADA YOSHISUKE and HEIANJO NAGAYOSHI.
