Nagamitsu was the Warden at Okayama Prison sword factory.  This hand forged sword has good activity in the hamon and is a stout well made sword.  The hada has no flaws and is well forged.  Nagamitsu swords are desirable because of the styles he worked in and the quality of the swords.  This sword is a fine example of his work.
