Special feature:
\nChiyozuru refers to a group of swordsmiths from Echizen, believed to have originated when Rai Kuniyasu relocated to the region. Because of this lineage, they are also known as Echizen Rai. They were active from the Nanbokuch\u014d period to the early Muromachi period, with Morihiro being another notable smith alongside Kuniyasu.
