Azebiki is mainly used for long cuts, such as the grooves for sliding doors and windows.

The fifth and fourth generations of Nakaya Takijiro both used "中屋瀧次郎正義/Nakaya Takijiro Tadayoshi" as their brand name. But the works of the fourth generation of blacksmiths only add "正義" to the saws that use "Tamahagane". Regarding the authenticity of this information, I will find an opportunity to verify it with the 5th generation blacksmith in the future.
