À propos de Harumitsu :
Nom réel : Okawa Osamu. Réside à Shingū City, Préfecture de Wakayama. A étudié sous Kawachi Kunihira. Il est également bien connu en tant que forgeron de terrain traditionnel (野鍛冶) et a été désigné maître artisan de la Préfecture de Wakayama.
Il semble admirer les tachi de la période mid-Kamakura, et nombreuses de ses œuvres présentent ce qui est connu sous le nom inokubi-kissaki - une pointe de lame raccourcie et trapue souvent associée à ce style.
Caractéristiques Visuelles
La lame a un poli impeccable et un kissaki distinct, probablement de taille moyenne. La ligne de trempe (hamon) est subtile mais visible sous un éclairage approprié. Les proportions de l'épée suggèrent un équilibre pratique et une réactivité.
