I probably have posted this video in the past, but it is important to remind people that the great Samonji sword used by Imagawa Yoshimoto during the Battle of Okehazama is located in Kyoto at Kenkun Jinja. Nobunaga took the Samonji sword as a spoil of war. The sword was originally two feet six inches in length. However, Nobunaga shortened to two feet two inches. He later had the sword engraved " The sword of Imagawa Yoshimoto, who was careless and killed by Nobunaga on 19. 5. 1560."
Tenka no tame!
