My name is inspired by the waves the blacksmith has created on my sides. Folded and folded on itself, the metal is heated and then struck by the sledgehammer, creating layers that overlap, mix and multiply the strength of the steel that makes me up.

My mount is not intended for martial practice. It's temporary, until I find my first master-at-arms. In any case, I symbolize potential, the future, what the soul aspires to.

His teaching is intended to help Sugi live in the new society that will soon replace the samurai. But Ikémoto is killed by men from the southern clans, enemies of the Shôgun.

In principle, they may not be carried or transported without legitimate reason. If transported, the weapon must not be "directly" usable. It must be securely packed in a case or container, preferably with a padlock or other protective system.
