 This is a rather deep, rising, Shuhama-shaped tebachi with a bridge-like pattern on the prospective side and a hawk-shaped pattern on the outer side, and has legs on three sides. It is a rare example of a fine example, but regrettably, the hand is broken. It was donated to the Tokyo National Museum by Mr. Mino Susumu.
