Heshikiri Hasebe

へし切長谷部

An Uchigatana forged by Hasebe Kunishige. Its name derives from an incident in which Nobunaga—upon discovering a tea-serving monk hiding beneath a kitchen shelf—sliced ​​through both the monk and the shelf in a single stroke. Fiercely loyal to his master, he yearns to be their foremost retainer, though he never voices this desire aloud. He performs even the dirtiest of tasks without hesitation.
